I had my "aught-nine" copper AHH on the 9:35 ferry today. Great day - got some snow between the sun breaks, and saw a nice black Roadeo zoom by on it's maiden voyage according to the owner who just finished the build last night. No other Rivs spotted, but a good ride. I'll post some pics when I get 'em uploaded.
