Woohoo! Finally in the lead.  Well, you "were" in the lead. But you're only 5 points off now so one good leg should put you back!

Well, after a bad start, I made up some points, but the last leg messed me up big time. Thought I'd calculated the distance correctly, but must have missed a leg - TWO HOURS WORTH!!! Bas - you SURE about the mileage? I was out of the race for anywhere the lead, anyway!

Aloha Basil,
I'm having a great time here in what I hope will be my first completed rally. Thank you for all of your efforts to not only create the rally, but make it interesting!
The potholes in Colorado are as bad as those here in Hawaii...

All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is losing more points to those @%#* construction crews and potholes. I hope my honesty and aversion to gambling pay off with some better legs on this journey.
Never did find that highway between Rt 41 and Rt44 on my way to Edgewood... but I'm enjoying the landscape as I explore the routes on Google Earth.
Think I'll head over to the East Mountain Grill for a drink...
Ciao for niao!

pa297pass is very well positioned, but there is no way he can keep up a 9.85 avg! (is there?)  there has to be some construction in his future.... right? please...  just a little pot hole to slow him down?  oh well, looks like i am racing for second place...but anything can happen in 7 checkpoints .....

Plains is one sleepy little town. Guess I'll go and look at some crop circles while I wait to start out for the next checkpoint... and it's a dry county to boot...
