700 . That is a lot of miles to come but very dedicated, at least the ride will be comfortable

Actually.... Last year Session 1 was canceled due to rain. Weather cleared and we were able to run Session 2. Most guys came out on Saturday, but I had to work on Sunday so I couldn't hang around long on Saturday.

Don't think I'll be able to get there in time for Session 1. Thanksgiving with the family on Thursday... Will leave in the middle of the night, but it's a 12 hour drive so plan on getting to Atco in time for the 2nd session... will stay for Saturday!
