NoVa Fun Run #3 Pictures

Doug E · 11-24-2002, 01:20 PM

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who participated in today's event. We had 21 cars show up and it was quite a parade.

I look forward to seeing everyone at Fun Run #4 in the Spring.

Here's a picture of us just before we hit the road:

Had a lot of fun today...it was a good group, and awesome roads. I can't wait to see what sorts of videos and pictures come out of this!

Any chance we could have everyone post their name and car details just so that I can place each person with their car (or in some cases, a person with a car). For instance, I'm Josh Pinkert, and I drove the White '87 Turbo with a Black '02 Labrador Retriever riding shotgun. Thx.

Kudos again to Doug for the great route. Jason shot some good pix. I'll get a few up tonight.

Today was a great day for driving and I had a blast. It was great to finally put some faces to some of the names I've seen on here. Thanks, Doug, for putting together a great route. Can't wait to do it again!

I'm jealous, guys! It looks like a nice turnout, especially so close to Thanksgiving. Lu and I had a fun run of our own...we'll soon have an early car in the garage.

Here are a few shots from the back of the pack.
Beautiful day, and a great route selection - many thanks Doug.

Great news on the early car, Jim.
Expect we'll see you and Lu driving on the next run??

Looks like you guys had a great run w/ great weather! Can't wait to see more pics & the VIDEO!

Jim Richards · 11-24-2002, 04:53 PM

Great pic's Tony! It looks like Doug E was trying to get everyone's feet wet. Wonder what that bridge looks like with the Spring runoff?

I think the next fun run Lu will drive her new 73E and I'll ride shotgun with the camera!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Doug E · 11-24-2002, 04:56 PM

Tony - great pictures, especially of the low water bridge! Who was it again this morning who said you can't drive and shoot at the same time ?

Thanks for all the route compliments guys. If you can believe it I have plenty of other roads to use for future runs.

Green 912 · 11-24-2002, 05:13 PM

Doug Thanks for all the hard work and the obvious research on the roads. You found some great roads and I plan to save the route map for my own “Sunday runs” Kudos to you.

Some more to add to the thread, originals are 1.7 meg and I think I over compressed...

I am seething with jealousy and regret!

Folks, I've a bunch of photos on my site. There's a link off the home page. There's also a bigger version of the following collage.

It was great meeting everyone. I'm already looking forward to Spring!

Doug E · 11-24-2002, 06:15 PM

Greg - great pictures on your web site! Kudos to Jason - maybe we have found our event photographer ????

It sure was great meeting everyone! Hopefully we'll do run # 4 soon.

Here's a link to a video summary I made of today's run.

Thanks again to Doug, I had a great day!

I too have lots of pictures, but meanwhile I also NT machines that don't like USB... Have to wait.

I've been waiting to see your guys video but could you edit it down a tad to get it under 20meg? Maybe downgrade the quality & length a notch.

Doug: Nice job once again.

Greg & Tony: Great pics.

Now it's project time, Spring is right around the corner

You all take care.

Forgot one *I* shot for you guys with whale tails.

Doug, I'm sure Jason will be around for the next Run.

I spied Mr Micklewait, but where's Mr Kelly in those pix? I gotta find out how he's able to drive and take pictures at the same time. Must be that aviation training, or sumthin. . .
