We had about 22 cars in two groups, for most of the trip, which was organized by Jerry & Saralyn (no small feat with that number of cars). We were still getting our “feet wet” the first day with three CHIP tickets / warnings. After that – nothing but fun! Kudos to Jerry & Saralyn for all the planning and execution of the run.
