Hung out with "Harry" in the lanes some.....He was so funny !! And went on to win.....No shock there.
Went from beautiful and 80 to rain, wind and cold....I was freezing and wanted to get outta there.

That was a great time, can't believe we were talking about the 30 year anniv. FIVE YEARS AGO already. At that time you "reminded" me it was finished up on Monday! We had a great ride home and of course it all ended 2 months later when Harry climbed the top end guard rail at the finish line in the semis(Etown Points Meet). Imagine him on the brakes!! Thanks John for listing the other winners from that event, some I remembered, some I didn't. It was a mad dash to finish and 'evacuate'. My winners circle pic I've put up on FB and elsewhere shows Johnny Labbous and a 5 year old John Labbous Jr. He would go on to win the Gators 30 years later!!
