Fall Gathering 2012

[Cruiser_Nerd]

Mike carried the FJ25 torch for the Yankee Toys Fall Gathering in New Hampshire last weekend. I have to admit to riding in relative modern comfort for the weekend. The ersatz 25's outnumbered the real ones 2:1 this year. Having a bezel, let alone a square one, felt a little weird.

Mike led the stock run on Friday and Saturday. I navigated Friday, trails were a lot milder but the Fall Gathering is always better when wet. (That's a lie........I really enjoyed the weather tight top, intermittent wipers and defroster on the 45. ) Crappy cell phone pics:

More crappy cell phone pics of 45's. Jason, didn't we post this same picture last year? ;p No, I would never wheel the 45, this was taken in the campground..........

 

[My wife said no FJ!]

So is the cat out of the bag? You going to post your gem in the 45 section?



Now that FG is over are looking for a rear sill? Or have you decided since you will never drive the 25 again you won't bother and let the next owner deal with it?

Cat's out of the bag, but the 45 will now likely get tucked away in the garage for the future, no thread for it. (Kinda like that new avatar of yours............if it were readable, you'd have to do a bit of explaining on that. )

Girls say no to a "next owner" of the 25 so I am looking for that crossmember, Mike wants to get right on it. If it were my schedule anytime in the next ten to twenty years would be OK, but he's going to have a full plate soon.

Johnny, not sure you'd recognize it with all the buggies, most of the Cruisers are arriving behind Chevies Fords and Dodges. Supposedly the Farmers Almanac says it always rains that weekend, so that's just the same.

Well this just hit me like a ton of bricks...with so much going on I knew it was October 1st, but I completely forgot that it was actually OCTOBER today!!!

So, how did the 45 wheel?
