A Very Special Thanks..

I wanted to take a moment and say thank you to the "SD BOYZ," Bill, Jim and Bondo. We ran into these three guys a few years ago in Utah rolling through the backcountry near Navajo Lake. I rarely meet people that I like as much as these guys, and when I do, I try to get them to race for us. Since that week in Utah years ago, I have made it a point to keep in touch with these three hard-asses. They have been to two consecutive Camp-N-Rides now, and I wouldn't want to have it without them. We decided to donate the funds this year (as a team) to the Kristine Blanchette fund, and when they found out, they stepped up huge. Being three of the biggest hearted guys you will ever meet, they put in more $ for raffle tickets than the US Mint prints in a year. Bill (the owner of Beast) told Bondo and Jim to donate the gas money they had saved to give him for the trip home, as well as the already large amount they had already donated. I would like to say a personal thanks to you guys for everything (feeding Lydia :)) and showing up, having a great time with everyone, etc. I would also like to tell Bill that I am deeply sorry for something that I tend to say on a regular basis that is most likely HORRIBLY offensive to him. I didn't even realize it until I had said it about 10 times, but be assured I will never use that term again. I am trying to a better job with my non-existant vocabulary "filter."
Anyhow, these guys deserve a HUGE thanks, and are probably the three coolest guys I know...besides Grandpa Munster...
