I can let you know after Thursday. I have some surgery coming up, but I don't know when until I meet with my doctor. I kinda doubt I'll be recouped by the 16th. Old age LOL.

When wrestling a grizzly bear, you have to keep at it until the bear gets tired, not when you get tired.

Turns out I won't have surgery until the 27th so 16th sounds good!

Oh my. How bad is it? Were you burning out too much and fried the clutch? You kids!

Hy Guys, I contacted our GMC guy George and he said he could make it. Now how about some of you who have never been out to one of my Pikanks, great opportunity to meet guys with a similar interest, give your trucks a test drive for the rest of the summer events, and have a look at my rust collection. Come on out guys we don't bite (at least not that I know of). Regards Bobb

Hy BC52 and guys, yes the 16th is confirmed, it looks like just the usual suspects, I don't know why nobody else wants to come out, I guess I have a bad reputation or something.

Hy everyone, well another Pikanik is over, a beautiful day, some first timers, some catching up and some introductions, I hope everyone had as good a time as I did. It was great to see everyone again, I hope everyone made it home safely. Remember Alvin and Victoria said hello.

Hy GMC kid 7530 and guys, it was great to meet you and your daughter and check out your 62 3/4 ton, the last of an era. I am so glad you ventured out, I'm glad everyone came out, we had a beautiful day and it was great to see everyone. Now you know where I am, don't be afraid to come out and finish your tour.
