Sometimes I get the feeling the whole world is against me, but deep down I know that's not true. Some smaller countries are neutral.

well i made it home with no problems. made it from edmonton to airspeed in just over 13 hours on friday.
it was a great trip, there are some nice cars in alberta...
i didnt have any problems other then keeping a close eye on this issue...
this is what 2 inner notches, and a few outer notches will do to low pros after 5-6000 miles..

Good to hear you made it home OK. I didn't even realize you were a regular on this forum 'til after the fact. Freddy introduced me to you at Ken's party on Sat. night.
See ya at GCVWS!
