Its Offical, Bonneville 2026 has been canceled. To much rain and no track access. That's Racing, Funny my first thought was well its already built for next year. Guess I'll figure out what's next. Thanks everyone
 
Well after a few days I have a plan, Leaving Tuesday for Cruiserfest 2026. Looking forward to seeing everyone and sharing some stories. As far as our Racing future goes when I get back my plan is drain the tank on the 45 pull the battery and mothball the Ol truck til next year. Bonneville 2027. There is nothing coming up that would make me want to change everything I have already done to the 45. The last few days looking around the yard I think its time to take a break and enjoy what I have. I have no plans on moving anything next to the shop anytime soon. Just tinker on a few things and Enjoy some vacation time, Maybe a few wheeling trips.

You gotta get a pic with Shauno!
Cruiserfest 2026 was a Blast it started by picking up Thomas at the airport who flew in from Virginia. Love this kid. Friday night we attended the VIP dinner and yes met Shauno. What a down to earth guy, We spent sometime talking about the 45 He was grinning ear to ear when I opened the door and said check it out LOL At one point I fired up the mighty 1F and to me surprise he shared a short video on his Instagram page.

Some of the highlights for me at Cruiserfest 2026, Having Thomas fly out from Virginia and getting to spend time together before his deployment, Just a few of our Friends and Sponsors, Our Fans. This to me is just amazing. Young men and women excited to see the 45 and sharing their own stories. It really was a Great weekend. The Bonneville 45 is now back under the car port. No major adventures or races planned with the truck. Taking the next few months off and heading back east to visit Will and the Grandkids
