Going off-topic

I just realized that this is an incredibly boring blog, but since no one reads it, it really doesn't matter. However, tomorrow morning has given me a great reason to go slightly off topic.

There is a good friend of mine who owns MGs who is making a great effort at getting local Triad area MG owners together on a regular basis. Nothing organized, like a club, but simply a, "hey let's meet up and go for a drive, have breakfast, or share some tips" everynow and then.

Anyhow, tomorrow we are meeting up at 9 a.m. for a group drive into the mountains. Now, I am attending these gatherings, but I don't own a street MG, so I am that one random guy that shows up in a Ford. And, though I miss not having a street car, I still enjoy hanging out with like minded people and their beautiful cars.

So going back to my buddy - he owns two MGs and asked me earlier this week if I wanted to drive his blue '75 MGB during tomorrow's drive. I said yes - of course - but what is really cool about it, is that I have not driven a street stock MG since the 90s.

I am really looking forward to it. I'll get some pictures and post a follow up tomorrow.
