X2. It really showed on Anna's face and the rest of the family what a great job you guys did. Everbody smiled and had a good time and I think thats what Seth would have wanted. He was not with us but you can bet he was smiling too!Fred said:Frank,
You did a hell of a job. I've been a part of for a long time, and I've never been as proud of the group as now.
Thanks for you, Led, Troy, and everyone involved for enabling us to do a good thing.

The run went very well and the Stantons definitely made us all feel great about helping them make Seth's request a reality. Got a little somber at the end of the trail when we had the memorial..... I had a hard time keeping my composure, but in all, it was a great day with great people. Getting the salutes from that group of bikers as we drove past in Woodland Park was pretty cool too.
Special thanks to Daniel Zimkas for playing Taps during the moment of silence - you did great Daniel!
It also was really great to see Anna, Nate and Dillon genuinely enjoying themselves as they ran the trail in the XJ. Nate really did a great job - like he'd been 'wheeling a few times before. Anna had a perma-smile from driving thru the puddles and mud holes! :thumbup:
Thanks again to the 'Springs group for busting their butts working on Seth's rig - you guys got a huge amount of work done, but having the rig running for the trail run wouldn't have been possible at all without your efforts!
YELLAHEEP said:Very nice piece done by Mark. Short but to the point. I'm glad some of what I was asked wasn't used. I was wrong on a couple of things..... Frank, Led, Jeff, Fred and others used a bunch of their own funds for the parts, some were donated but not all like I'd assumed. I'd plugged Avenger and Napa as sponsors..... Napa wasn't among them..... oops.
Interesting that none of Val's interview was used.... and no mention of COHVCO other than the plans for the plaque at Indy, but no credit given specifically.
