skydiverbrian 0 #11 December 2, 2002 QuoteI take my beer in a pint glass Unfortunately, in the US, we don't get proper pints. They even look at you crazy if you ask them to fill it all the way up. I was in London and they know better than to leave any head on the top.

CanuckInUSA 0 #12 December 2, 2002 Congrats Clint. I know the excitement you must be feeling because I was there too not that long ago. I'm likely going to come down to Canon City one more weekend before the year is out and maybe we can meet up then. Any idea as to what weekends the Caravan will be running at SDTR in December?
