Sharon, I noticed the lunch time on Friday at Bent Elbow was 12:30. If you leave Ridgway at 10:00am it is a one hour drive (34 miles) to Silverton. That puts you there at 11:00am. Is lunch at 12:30 firm? The reason I am asking is to coordinate my departure with Jim from Durango. Thanks! Our reservation is for 12:30 so hopefully yes. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Made it home in one piece! Well mostly one piece, the nut for my lower alternator bolt is somewhere between Ridgeway and Montrose and i cooked 4 alternator belts on the drive back because of it. VERY lucky the first belt started squealing while in Montrose and not the 200 miles of nothing that followed. Also very lucky that Jerry happened to pass by the same way and caravaned with me all the way back to my house. Thanks a TON Jerry! could have been a real bad day had you not been there.
914 guys are the best! Do we know if everyone else made it back ok? |

Jim and I met his friend, loaded up his car and I went on by myself after they were good to go. Had a snack in Moab while we waited but pretty good timing over all....
I even got just a warning from the Highway Patrol for being an little rambunctious with the throttle! A very pleasant guy overall so no worries! Made it home with no further incidents. A great time with great people and some unforgettable rides and drives! Thanks to all of the hard workers who put this together and for everyones good cheer through the weekend - what a blast! |

Note to self - add alternator belt to the spares kit...... I was thinking the exact same thing. I had all the gear in case my clutch cable broke, my shift linkage, a spare MPS. somehow didnt even think to pack a belt. Seems like a good thing to have in a 914 all the time. |

I believe that Justin made it to Scottsdale after a little cable fix by fellow teener passerby's Ernie and Mike. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

The Colorado outlaws crew all made it back. One little hiccup with the orange car, but otherwise flawless.

Stupid throttle cable, all damn weekend! At least this time I had the center console out and already figured out what to do as a temp fix when they rolled by :rofl: Big thanks to Ernie, Mike, Toast, Chris and Jamie for helping me out on the side of the road! |
