Default Thanks to everyone there

Richard and Deborah are missing from the shot in there green SPF. I headed up with them to meet everyone at Bass Lake. He had to head back early after lunch because his father went into the hospital.

That left four Cobra's for the cruise up the twisty roads above Bass Lake. I do not beleive there was one section of straight road the enite 15 miles.

My BAD for picking an area to turn around that had sticks and pine cones however there was not a whole lot of options given the area we were in.

And of course end up paying the price by getting a flat about 1 mile north of Bass Lake. Everyone jumped in to help where they could. The Good Year Eagle on the rear was toast and no amount of air was going to get it fixed with the size of hole that was in the tread. So the last and best option was to get a trailer and tow it home. John Marcy and Cindy and her son jumped into action while Rick waited with me for them to return.

When John and Cindy returned we loaded the Cobra up on the trailer and took it back to my house in Fresno. Rick jumped in his reliable slab sided cobra and headed back to Modesto.

I felt bad that John had to go really out of his way to help me out and owe all these guys big time.

This is a really good group of people and we certainly have to plan more events in the future.

I am even thinking right now of hosting a club party in the fall with a cruise to go with it. Will keep everyone posted.

I am currently out of town on business and when I return I will post the pictures that I have of the past weekend. I also know that John took some pics but is also out of town.
