Has anyone put up a hi-res version of this and I missed it?  Also, how did the ride by video turn out?

Bad news.  Was barely home a week from Colorado and Harvey got us.  We had to evacuate.  Our house is flooded and it's still raining.

Bud, I hope the damage is minimal or none. Keep your chin up. Also, if some could name the people in the pictures it would be helpful.

Hi Scott. Absolutely it is a deal. I will send out the go pro when I get back. I'm in upstate NY right now.
Budman hope all turns out well for you sorry to hear about the flooding.

I haven't seen it. We need to ask Jerry, it was his friend Terry's girlfriend that shot it.

That's good luck. Should be an easy cleanup.

Ahhh, modified, the bike that is.

I took some pretty poor quality pics of the ride by, and when I tried to post them last light, they disappeared into the ether-net?

I knew when I gave you da Pimp, you weren't going to give him back. ;)
Are you going to get to visit Andy? It would mesh with the reunion theme. ;D

Where is Scott and his Seeley in this motley crew of SOHC/4ers and their friends?
Surely he did not miss this as well as Gene and his wife.
So, is someone going to Photoshop them into the picture?
Do you wish to expand this tagging to include what they were riding? Joe had his Guzzi 1400 ?California?
There was a blue twin in one of Scott's photos.
Couldn't hurt if parenthetically it would include and displacement increase such as Jerry's JMR billet block 1000cc build.
If you want to get even more fancy any build thread if one so existed or link to your introduction thread with a photo of your bike would be good.

David,

My Hot Rod 1000 is not a JMR block. Big Jay did it up with his 1000 kit for me. Scottly did not have his Seeley at the meet. He played with my Webers instead  :D. The twin is CB650/Terry's 360.
