    Thanks, Kevin. Saturday was a great day. Thanks Clete for leading us around, and Steve for the use of his picnic table.
    Perfect weather and smooth trails. We got lost as usual, didn't even need Russ to do it!

    Thanks to everyone that showed up. Thanks to BillF, Bryon, JonXX and all the gang.

    Oh, and thanks to Dean and his assistants for running this great web site that brings us all together. Great bunch of riders that enjoy riding and talking Husky!

    Looking forward to next year.

    Greg, Val, and I had a great time!
    Our long ride to Fort Rock on Sunday turned near-disaster as we got caught in major rainstorms and were not dressed for it. We warmed up and ate at the Fort Rock Diner. On the way back to camp we got hit with a snow storm. It was quite the adventure!
    Big THANKS to Bill, Bryon, Dean, and everyone involved in making this a really fun and enjoyable time!

    Here are a few pics... Will have to condense about 46 GoPro videos into a short montage.

    Tammy,
    Same here. We missed you.
    I'm sure you could've read the map(s) better than us. (we had 2 maps, it didn't help!). I guess when were about to leave the OHV area boundary, that's when we figured out we went North instead of South. It was only an 8 mile detour this time. What the heck, we were having too much fun riding!

    See you next year for sure.

    It was a 125 weekend for me. Our room number was 125. On my way home today, stopped at Sno-Cap in Sisters, and my order number was 125. Got home, and had a dollar and a quarter in my pocket.
    Here is the pics I got. Random, but good memories. Thank you to everyone who continued to feed me beer Saturday night. I only brought a 6'er, thinking that would be enough. I probably drank close to double that.
