    Have a feeling the weather is gonna keep the attendance low. I'm still going to the Firehouse if anyone wants to make the trip. That's what 4-low is for anyways! haha

    I hope to make it out there next time when the weather is a little better. Maybe then I'll need a break from working on the car and can combine the trip with a few hours riding at Rock Cut.

    I had a great time. Nice to meet everyone and put a name to a screen name. Guiness Grub and good company = Good times in my book. Thanks Jeff for putting this thing together.

  25. I had a great time again. It was nice to escape the snow for a couple hours with a few beers and good conversation.

    Well the third saturday of this month sure has caught me by surprise!

    I've had a great time at the last two "HAMB on the Rocks" and would love to continue them. The Saturday lunch time frame was great when the weather was poor and the Firehouse has been more than hospitable (and they said they would love to keep having us).

    I'm looking for input from you guys as to what the spring should hold for "HAMB on the Rocks". My personal opinion would be to make it Sunday early am breakfast as Saturday's at noon are going to start to be real busy. We can also move it further south toward town and maybe find a place that serves some good breakfast food and maybe still has a room off to the side.

    Let me know your thoughts - Chime In! :)

    Its all good Jeff. Sundays may present a problem too. Depends which way everyone needs to go. LOL Yea saturday noon will eventually be worse when the weather is great. So just tell them and they will come. :)

    I like the idea of Sunday breakfast. Earlier the better. Hope you don't have to go much further South. Choose a good spot that is central for the past participants.
     
  30. not that my opinion is worth a shit...missed the first two, but please don't go to far south...
