I WILL attend the 2012 Monte Carlo Nationals, thanks to the generosity of Rob (Minnesota), who offered to pick me up. He will be here (Illinois) LATE Wednesday (06/27/2012) night (11p-ish); we should arrive in JOHNSON CITY TN ~2p Thursday w/his 1972 MC in tow.

It'll be great to "get away", meet new people, re-connect with friends, & maybe "network", too!

That's a helluva list, Cort! You've done a great job documenting them all too. :D

Thanks, Eagle! Hasn't always been easy to document them, but I've tried.


I'm so jealous that you've gotten to experience almost LITERALLY the entire country. Don't toss away the plans for the 2012 trip, you'll get to make that round soon I hope :)

Glad you're getting to go to the MC Nationals still :fy:

Definitely was good to go, though I paid a hefty "price" when I got home (will share the news in a different post). Not tossing away the plans for this year's trip ... just may have to "delay" it a bit, as frustrating as that is, since I've done a "major" road trip every year for a number of years in a row.
