Hi all,

Just thought that I would 'Post" some photos from the London Ohio event.

Thanks to; hey,little cobra and Trularin.

Prior to heading down the street to check the Cobras out, I caught up with; hey,littlecobra - Kristen from Texas and Trularin from the Chicago area.

Getting ready for the parade. The cars assembled in a nearby truck parking lot. Over 100 cars then drove into London and into the main street that had been closed off for them.

Main street London Ohio. This was closed off for the parade and parking. Later in the morning the end of the street was used for street drags, where Cobras and Gt40's took spectators for a run. The fastest time down the street was 98mph. Spectators paid a $10 dollar donation to Cystic Fibrosis for the ride.

The Police Chief in his little buggy. drove up and down all day making sure Cobra owners and friends were happy. He had his Police checking speeds and had a large speed display up at the end of the street. He just loves the Cobras.

Well when you have everything, why not a truck to carry your bikes around. Don't we all..

..seen in the truck lot where the parade assembled.

I will add to the pictures once I get them off other sites. Will possible start a second Thread!! - same title but numbered #2....

Cheers

bernie

Chas,

I spoke with Brent - briefly - regarding the tires when we caught up at Evansville.

From memory his thoughts were that the tire guy was very busy on other race/vehicle stuff.

It appears that our tires are still on the go, but perhaps not a high priority when the big dollars jobs are needed.

Perhaps Brent may chime in here - or PM him BB427

Take care

Bernie

Add them onto this Thread??

hey, bernie! I think I put most of the photos in the earlier thread, 'london pics by hey,littlecobra-australia' or something like that.

maybe this link will work. I like your photo of you, trularin and me better than mine. Will snag yours and switch it out in my scrapbook!

story and pics from LCS- for Australia

oops- it's the link in the australian forum to the 'real' thread in all cobra talk. oh well, kind of a scavenger hunt.

I think everybody has seen it by now, probably.

I enjoyed your photos/story of the ride in the 40. Fun!

Right now I'm having no fun and I'm missing the fun we all had in London. Haven't seen Hershal posting any. Has he recovered??

gotta go!

That pic was taken by Erich with our camera.
I think I am going to suggest he gets a job as a photographer.

London was excellent. We may do it again next year, price of gas may hold us back.

Will see both of you next year in London, Yes, No?

hey,littlecobra · #15 (**permalink**) 07-18-2005, 07:25 AM

hey, tru. I was thinking yours was just a little bit different. thanks, I'll snag YOURS, instead!

I have a bunch more, but they weren't 'good enough' to post. I might add one or two tho'. It took me such a long time to put them in gallery, then into thread. Probably can do a few more....

got company coming tonight. house is a mess.

trularin · #16 (**permalink**) 07-18-2005, 07:46 AM

You sent me a boat load. I probably have all of the ones you had, including the fuzzy ones.

hey,littlecobra · #17 (**permalink**) 07-18-2005, 08:00 AM

yeah, I KNOW i sent them to you; I didn't post all those in my gallery... I was 'seeing' double by that time. I've got a couple of them in a little book for Bernie.

You can delete the cruddy ones!
