Thanks to Bob and Sue for a great weekend!! The hospitality was wonderful, great company and good fun!!

With 6 present we got tires dismounted and a tube patched, a run to the sandblaster to drop off some parts. We got a Lowboy up and running, wired and tires aligned. On another we got a brake bushing made and installed and linkages adjusted. We got a power unit reserected and running smooth for setting for a couple years. More wiring straightened out on another Cub. And the biggest project, pulled all the pistons and installed new piston rings, lapped all the valves, reinstalled the head and had it up and going just after lunch!! Plus a great deal of other little projects.
It was a great weekend with some great folks!! Looking forward to next year!!
Thanks again Bob!!

thanks for the pics raymond, ya'll had a heck of a good fest . thats a lot that got done in a couple days. colorado in august , hmmmmmmmmm . coppersmythe................

Thanks for the pics, Ray. Sounds like you guys got a bunch of stuff done. Ole Bob must have kept you on track!

Val, the weather was great! Actually had to put a jacket on one time!

We stayed pretty busy Roy, Bob kept us on a tight schedule!!

Looks like a fun time! Would love to make it one day!

I had to go get a new modem today.....
I think everyone that attended had a great time, and anytime Raymond is at a Cubfest a lot gets done. The weather couldn't have been better, although the smoke from western forest fires obscured the mountains most of the weekend. Frank (Cubfriend) picked up some tires this morning that he felt were safer here overnight than in the motel parking lot and headed back to Grand Island, NE. Thanks to all who came and attended.

Well, looks like someone is all geared up for the first October snow storm in LongMont. Bob, you just don't know how badly I would like to come to the 'fest. Hopeing you all have a wonderful time. Oh, goodness, it has been held already. Well, hope you all "had" a great time.

Russ, You're welcome to visit again anytime whether there is a Cubfest going on or not.

Looks like it was a very "hands on" type of event. Would love to make the trek out there and join you all. Glad you had a good time!! Thanks for the pics, Raymond.
