Re: [at-l] Re: You ARE going to Trail Days, aren't you? was Re: [at-l]Trail Days



Rides to Trail Days from the northern VA/MD area can usually be had from 
trail-related folks from the area.  A call to Bears Den, Blackburn, or the 
offices of the ATC and PATC will generally do it.

Like, I'm going and I can cart 3.  Matter of fact, I applied a full can of 
Scotchgard to my upholstery when the car was new knowing that would be its 
fate.  :)
