    First Sunday in April Blackhawk C & C

    Regrettably something totally unexpected & unavoidable came up yesterday morning and I couldn't make it to EASY……..as much as I wanted to.

    To atone for my missing out on what appears to have been an almost historic gathering, allow me to attampt to make up for it by posting some completely randomly selected images from this morning's Blackhawk Cars & Coffee.

    Uncharactestically sparse turn-out, what with Easter Sunday morning and rain in the forecast - maybe all that had something to do with folks staying away in droves.

    Enjoy

    …..and another.

    Note: it's the usual problem of the 'system' arranging the files by mb size order & completely ignoring the sequence in which I wanted to post these photos to aid in continuity - Images #1 & 2 and #5 are all of the Noble GT.

    Photos #1 & 2 are of the same 'rat-rod' and I thought #4 & 5 show quite effectively how far passenger-car internal combustion engines have evolved in the last 85 or so years.

    Another set of 5. Image #5 shows the latest version of a "mini Segway"………..9 to 12 mile range at a maximum of about 12mph - rode it all over handing out brochures and then rode it home.

    Wow, that's a really interesting group of cars. Keep forgetting about this one and will have to check it out soon. And thanks for posting, I was about to email you to see where you've been!
