Re: READING Recap and Photos / Videos

I personally much preferred having it in May. It was warm and the weather was nice, even at night. That and there's no college classes at this time in May.

Thanks, Harry.

I could not agree more. This one was a particularly rough one as there were complications that were addressed behind the scenes. Adding this to my already hectic commuting schedule did not help much.

Reading X and the Pace Car almost did me in.

I enthusiastically welcome any all all help that I can get. Arranging the Hotel accommodations is the easiest part. Donations, dealer support, activities, dinners, etc. is what takes a lot of effort. The infusion of new ideas and the enthusiasm of the newer members is most welcome.

Nice job organizing the meet, it must be exhausting, but rewarding work

Any pics of the red SVX with the Mazda wheels? Who owns that one?

Know what would be GREAT... If we could include captions to the pictures . names to faces and owners to cars. We on the key boards talk to many but have no idea what or who is on the other end of the monitor screen .... just a thought

Re: READING Recap and Photos / Videos

Hi everyone, Sorry Sue and I could not stay on Sunday, but we had to get back to SE Michigan on Sunday so we could leave on Monday to go to Terre Haute, IN to get our daughter and bring her back to Michigan on Wednesday so she could get ready for a wedding she was in on Friday. I haven't checked my mileage on the SVX yet but I will post it as soon as I get it. We both had a great time in Morgantown. Take care, BOBB and Sue

Re: READING Recap and Photos / Videos

I just made it home today. I'll be starting a new thread in here of my own with the details from this trip and personal thanks to the many people that helped out in various ways.
Reading was fun and good to see everyone that was there. Thanks John for organizing this. I'd try and be of help getting future ones setup but it's not the easiest thing to do from 1k miles away.
