Not one peep on this site about the Buellton Run. Where the hell is everybody ? By all accounts it was a fantastic run. But apparently not good enough to post here....!

How sad.

Peep - Peep ... Great Time. We'll post a few pics when up-loaded and a short story when we get un-packed & un-loaded... unless Connie or Linn beats us to it.

Don't be sad,

Hey Bob, for some reason, folks feel more "comfortable", for lack of a better word, over on Facebook!!! Bob Hunter, Scott Drolet, myself & others have mentioned to the good buggy folks that frequent Facebook, that they should come over here, but...!!! I even challenged everyone to post, even just one post over here & I don't think anyone did!!!
The photos that are posted on Facebook are usually gone in about a week or so!!! At least if the good buggy folks posted them here, the would be safe & accessible for years to come!!!

I would say the majority of the folks using Facebook are early 60's & younger!!! Those of us that are in the older realm... well, I guess we are the dinosaurs headed for extinction, while these younger folks are getting ready to take over!!! LOL




I wish I had a really good answer as to the lack of usage here by the younger buggy folks, but it baffles me too!!! LOL

We Had a GREAT TIME...
Arrived Thursday PM, in time for the Ladies Only outing early Friday AM. Below is a few pics of the line up under Connie's direction

As the Ladies headed out, the guys aren't sure to where... We heard something about shopping and lunch?

Leaving the guys to their own... A few of us gathered up and headed to Pismo Beach for lunch, sand and photo ops.
The blue buggy that looks like it's fan driven is Scott D's new buggy out for the first time.

Below,
Saturday we broke up into five groups. We were in the passionate purple group and headed up into the back roads for views high above Santa Barbara that included the Channel Islands What a super clear day and a great ride!

More later ....

Here's what I last posted over at the Facebook page..........

Michael Cates If you are having problems at the only "official" Manx Club site, contact the webmaster, the Club president, vice-president or ??? & let them know you are having a problem at the only "official" Manx Club site!!! It won't fix itself!!! Facebook is all warm & fuzzy, but everyone should be posting over at the only "official" Manx Club site!!!

Think anyone may have got the hint???
