    It was great to see some old friends, and make some new ones as well. Good to put some faces with those avatars.

    I thought the Iron Cactus did a nice job ! Plenty of food and drink for all.

    My reclusive cousin from Austin stayed a record 1.5 hours, after meeting up with ronr
    and some other Italian bike enthusiasts. My Norwegian friend Arne jumped into the car talk, and Quiz could converse with a wall.

    Us old guys headed to Round Rock at party end, and got to see USC beat Stanford.

    Didn't get to talk to Hobbs, but so cool that he was there, and having a blast. Hope the story about Greg Scott and ronr sitting in his driveway in Wisconsin didn't creep him out too much.

    Thanks also to Jennie, Stephanie, Valerie and the other beauties that helped make it a special night.

    Back in Dallas in 3:15 including a eating at the Health Camp in Waco. 80 and 75mph speeds are awesome !

    We missed you Jimpo1

    First of all, thanks to DIGMAN52 who brought up the idea, found the place, and then setup the reservation. It went very smooth, nice place, good food, and costs were kept in control.

    Thanks to the party sponsors who helped with the costs.

    Thanks to Jennie for help welcoming everyone.

    Thanks to all the users and guests that could make it. Always great to meet users in person.

    I don't see a reason we can't do it again.

    It was great seeing old faces and new faces that I can attach to usernames. If you need a reminder, I had was wearing a beige fchat polo.

    Unfortunately, I didn't see rcallahan's shirt that night, but enjoyed lunch and the chat yesterday.

    Had a great chat with Tifosi12 Thursday evening too.

    I was one of the ones who didn't want to bother David Hobbs but was excited he was there at the next table. He's on my list of guys to have a drink with, so I might have missed out this time but not next.

    Great event Rob, I hope you can do it again.

    Was great meeting you in person. Apologies for not spending much time with you. I got so busy with the cake, keeping my wife happy, entertaining my guest and chatting with other FChatters.

    As so often at big parties I left with a feeling of guilt for not having had enough time with everybody.
