had a scare last night....The simplex hadn't been started in a while so decided to take it for a spin & put fresh gas in.....it flooded all over the place.  Had to pull the carb off to get some grit out of the needle.....what a drag. 

Will arrive in Portland sometime on Saturday.....

We called all 4 hotels in town when we got here and by chance found one that had a cancelation so we are in Portland instead of Union city for the weekend! Union city was about 20 miles away so we lucked out!
