OK guys and gals....what's happening out there in April? I'm traveling I40 from ALB to Knoxville the first of the month and am hoping to be able to get in some great music on the way.

OK Kathy, just keep heading north to Canada, head west until you get to Winnipeg. The Linkon Pedal Party will be happening on April 14th & 15th. It's always great to see my ol pals up there.

I sure do appreciate the hospitality George, but as I'll be driving a 24' Tyder truck getting about 8 miles to the gallon, that side-trip might be a little too pricey for me Image But I"m sure there will be others on the forum that will have a great time!

OK OK..I'm not the best typist in the world!!

What's a "Tyder truck"? Image 8 mpg....WOW!!!! And I'm whinning about 25 mpg.

The 793C I drive at work (2350 HP) guzzles about 1,000 gallons of diesel fuel every 24 hours.
