Thanks dogbert, I think I told you the story, but I really wanted a DSLR for the trip. I sold my practically new Point and shoot on ebay, found this camera on craigslist. The guy met me about our hour before our plane left, I made him an offer and threw in my Escort wireless radar detector to boot. I never used it anyway and was lucky to get this camera - its a Nikon D70s with a 18mm - 135mm lens. I was honestly looking for a Canon xt or xti, which probably is a better camera for sports shots and higher mp. I only wish I had had it for a few days before we went out with Nick to get it dialed in.

Here are couple more shots from the trip.

Double Tree Hotel


Sean and Carley...recognize that guy in the back with the TX shirt? I cant believe TX did not win the best spirit award. Your guys stuck together and pulled for all your team riders. I could hear those cow bells when I laid down at night!

Your pics are stellar. I'm reviewing the 2,600 that I have for the really good ones. I had already culled over half that were not worth keeping. You guys have been warned...a really long thread is in your future...might take a while to download...

sweet... can't wait! The D70s is an awesome camera and Nikon's lenses are second to none.

Doms you must be so happy and grinning from ear to ear, that is so awesome, what a statement that is for tige' boats to follow through during your recovery and be loyal to their awesome owners. Makes me proud to be part of the family. I wonder if any other boat co. would go to these lengths? But lets also recongize the owners that came up with the great idea and effort to make all of this happen. You all

Go Sean!!!!!!!

Go tige'!!!!!!!

Go owners!!!!!!!

[Domsz06]

Thanks Scoot!! Let me tell you it was truly amazing. I think I have said that a few times, but it really was!

Sean, it is great to see you up and smiling. You have come alonnnnnnnnnnnnnnng way. Great pics of a great time. You have some wonderful friends. SPBFAN is quite a guy. TD

[Domsz06]

thanks TD!! Its good to be up!!

[SPBFAN]

I appreciate the credit guys but all I did was facilitate the event. JeanW from TIGE contacted me and put the whole thing together. She was the one that made the offer and coordinated it all with my help. TIGE is amazing for what they did here and it was great meeting and getting know know Nick W. He is a great guy and pretty funny also. I can also say the same thing about Ed from the factory.

[dogbert]

You do deserve some credit though. Especially for setting up the day before!

[Domsz06]

Very true SPBFAN, BUT still with out you it probably would not happen.

X2 Thanks!, Thanks!

SPBFan,

Your efforts with Sean recently speak highly of the quality person you are. The world would be noticably better if more random acks or kindness were performed. It is exceptionally refreshing to follow your facilitation of this event.

Beyond well done

I am a little late to the dance, but it is good to see that Tige has character and is more about than just making a profit. It looks like it was an awesome day and wish that I could have come along and helped Dogbert with the flag. Great job to SBFan, Dogbert, Tthrog, Jean, Eddie, Nick and all involved. Sean, its great to see you out where you belong!
