God Bless All of You
It's time for the annual Brussels Belgian "mawkish" reflection on how much I enjoyed meeting new TDI'ers and getting reacquainted with old friends. Actually, like that commercial, I'm just saying nice things because I want your BEER! Seriously, it was a very happy weekend for me; I hope everyone is home safe...

Made it home around midnight last night after a long drive in the driving rain. Great to see you again, Jack!

I'm just back home after a long but nice drive where I managed to get to the 900 miles range on my tank
This tank also had the city driving of Kentucky on it, so I'm glad with that!
Nothing failed on the way back for me or Dieseleux
Was nice to see all of you guys but that weekend is always too short !
I never have the time to meet people as I would like or look at all the other cars because I was cleaning mine hehe

Actually, almost. Lug Nut passed me early on, was able to make a fuel stop, and then RE-CATCH me. Since Jonathan is not known as a speed demon, it's pretty obvious I was hugging the right lane. I wonder why all the bulbs in my 4 way flashers are burned out?
