Does look like another great run under Curtis and Hals belt.
Great pix as always miles, thanks for posting those.
Only 5 left is serious bail-ege. Wonder what happened in/from Quincy on.

14-1/2 hrs on the road! 2-1/2 of that out of the Z, so technically 12 hrs. Luckilly for me, I was the passenger and the seats are comfy! Thanks again Curtis and Hal for a great run!

I think two left early after lunch in Oroville and then I think it was one got a flat on the way up 70 and someone stayed behind with them to assist. All in all, I think 8 made it to Smokey's. We left once we got there (sorry we couldn't stay for dinner guys) cause we had an additional 4 hr drive to get home.

RECAP from the RUN:
It was great run, made a lot new friends and caught up with some old friends. Weather was great, river was running high, lunch and dinner where excellent. Looking forward to the next run in July.
Pics will be posted up soon, been out of town and offline for last three weeks.

Great photos Chai, thanks for posting. Hope to have some posted later tonight.
Btw: It was 9 cars that made it to Smokeys, some did not stay and there were 5 heading back down the hill. The rest did not stay or never made it and went back to Grass Valley. 3 did not make it past Oroville, other plans I guess, they missed out. 1 turned off at Lake Almanor and The Outlaws (4) with one sneaky pete (me) met the rookies of Quincy. Final count leaving SAC I believe was 17.

^Agreed, I was behind you poking along when we hit that last hill before Quincy.
The Outlaws strike again, two years in a row. Last year soccer mom talked her way out with five others, then got kicked out of Quincy before we caught up. As I mentioned at the drivers meeting that Quincy comes up fast and they are always waiting there (the rookies right out of academy in Sac).
I dropped back knowing I was pushing luck with no po-po's through out the entire canyon. Also wanted to give others a chance to hot dog it, had no idea we were that close to Quincy when bam...road block and they practically took over the Chevron station to dole out yellow slips.
Overall it was still a hoot, hitting those wide sweepers. And some of the photos I have of you from behind, does look like you need to stiffen the Whiteline sways.
