I used the Duplicolor caliper paint on both. It was close enough to use on the Toyota logo just because it was handy when I was painting the bezel white.

I haven't had a chance to catch Dragon to let him know what I caught and I think too many people aren't as lame as I am to be posting to the forum instead of out partying...
Is everyone really out partying?


What was the color name or did you have to mix it?

Also, what color white did you use on the bezel?

You are fast with the pics! Thanks to all in Group4 that made today a great run on Black Bear -- including Tim of course! Oh and who's the fearless voodo blue in the lead?

They have a band tonight and its a BYOB thing on the lawn at the BW.

The only color Yellow that Duplicolor offers in the brake caliper paint is a pretty close match, so no mixing. Its a little too "yellow" but not noticable enough in my book. I also used the Duplicolor white on the bezel.

Regarding the speed of the pics, I always dump my camera card as soon as I get back just so that I have an empty card for the next round. It helps me keep my pics organized. I have over 15k pics on my desktop so I have been forced to develop a system. I dump the good ones on my iPhone and show off at the gathering also.

I'm also lucky that I have a decent WiFi connection in my room. I'm staying in the Mains St. B&B and there are only 3 or 4 rooms, not too much traffic. Its been pretty easy to dump them onto my Photobucket page. And, travelling with my family, we are not into staying too late once the alcohol begins to have too much impact on the grown ups.

And, I have to share, its been great and the pics must be shown as we all know the saying..."If there are no pics, it didn't happen"...

Re: Official Day 1, Black Bear Pass, group 4

I'da pee'd my pants in the pic with the sun fusion with the tire off the ground.

How'd that happen, anyway? Was the trail really off camber or was the front passenger tire up on a rock? Just curious.
