Awful! It could have been worse! Forecast was for a wet and windy day, but we only got the windy part. (Much to my advantage for the return to eastern Ontario, but probably not yours if you were headed west.)

It was awesome to see such a big EcoModder contingent. Everyone should try to come back for an AMEC (or some other) run later this year too.

Mike: congrats on taking the top MPG honours! I feel priveleged to have helped break in to the prize-winning Sentra before the event. (Also: I left without paying my share of the motel - just e-mail me the details.)

Oh, and the AWOL Ben mystery is solved: (Of course the ONE time I don't bring my laptop on a 2 day trip, I get all kinds of messages that would have been useful.) He wiped out his bike a week or so ago and had a minor concussion. Some symptoms came back on Fri, and his doctor told him he shouldn't be driving.
