Wet and miserable Hall but worth it! 27-1-10

Went to the Hall in pouring rain today, no joke on a motocycle!
Conditions stank but the arrival of an E8 made it worthwhile.
I also got a nice Ohio airguard KC tail close up....

Then the rain really picked up again, at least it wasn't snow!
Cheers, Stig.

e-8 has come out pretty good considering the awful conditions we faced down there,made getting soaked worth while.after i had left you i heard it on the box saying they had a package from souda for the 95th.i guess this was the reason they came in and not for the crew member to visit his brother like we heard them saying about. :D checked my picture and the nose art said 'Gremlin' underneath.

Lucky oh fudge. E-8's are not seen around here very much.
Well done for braving the weather. At least it would have given the BM a clean...

Cheers for the kind remarks guys.
I wish it were true that rain cleans BMWs but it just makes more mud to drive through!
COMA should be departing in the morning but I don't think the weather will be any better.
I was pleased to see the Ohio KCs as well, as they are rare visitors to the Hall.
Look foward to seeing you at the weekend Paul!
Cheers, Stig.
