Good to see you made it ok, Russ. Fast trip for that distance. I guess since Tim thanked you, he got somewhere ok yesturday.
Audrey was driving when Chuck went by us on I90 somewhere around the middle of South Dakota. We were on a section of road that ran several miles and just shook us on the seats. Wouldn't be surprised if that's where his gas tank strap gave way. Audrey was driving, I never got a good look at the bottom of his truck, not something I would have been looking for anyway. Wish I could have seen it, carried a good set of tools in the truck and extra straps, we might have gotten it secured easier with two of us.
While the rest of the folks were doing their last ride, Audrey did one of the things she really wanted to, rented a bicycle and rode that path that goes for miles in the area. Said she really enjoyed just getting out in the country, enjoying the views, and cooling her feet in one of the many streams and creeks crossing the area.

Custer Park, only place I could keep up with Greg.
Audrey watching Tim take a photo of the painter on Needles. Sorry about the finger.
Best Father-Daughter ride we've ever done. Chuck, Greg, Russ and Tim (alphabetical, would be hard to choose favorites anyway) a huge Thanks! for making this happen.
Sorry so many of you couldn't make it. I hope another time I can cross paths with those I missed this time.
Really glad to hear that Chuck. Wasn't worried about strapping the tank up, but that fuel leak sounded iffy. Hope you can get it fixed for a reasonable price. You and Russ made good time. Audrey and I left right around 8am, about an hour later than planned, and got to her place a little after 4. Stopped twice for gas, and a couple times for a quick take out, skipped breakfast. Little bit over 630 miles.
