Thanks @kevin in okinawa @Jakes40 @TRDdrew . I'm not going to make it out this month due to a scheduling conflict but please do check out the TLCA Call B.O.D. Rep notes in the private section for use in tomorrow's meeting.

Also can anyone help me to grab some t-shirts and swag from Fall Crawl? I wasn't able to figure that out when I came in for the day. I can drop by and pick them up from someone this month. Just let me know who's got em.

Nick

The nickname comes not from me, but it has to do with your love of BBQ and regular possession of, and/or knowledge of, related meats. Nothing more, nothing less. !!!

A few years back at Coal Miners we (wife and I) wheeled with you guys at least one of the days. Great time wheeling at Anthracite. Every time we stopped, you were producing different types of BBQed meats and treats...you had an impressive array of flavors, I remember them being tasty and well received. It was one of our first wheeling adventures in America, very memorable. So, I know you as John Vee, but my wife remembers you as the "meat snacks" guy, but "meat snacks" for brevities sake.
I think it rolls off the tongue!

Ahhhhh! I think that was my first trip with the burrito basket under the hood. I’d brought a nice assortment of food that rotated throughout the day. Gotta love a warm trail meal, even in July!
