The photos almost make me miss the southland. Geographic elitism aside, it looks like the trip was a raging success. There have been so many inspiring meet-ups this year. I imagine there'll be a few more before the weather turns (more for some, less for others... in regard to weather turning)

A great adventure. Hugh got the ball rolling by nailing down a date and putting a reservation in. Everything else just fell into place with ease. One of the largest turnouts for a Riv ride! So much happened it was still a bit of a blur. Extremely happy that folks made it all the way from San Diego
