Constance Bay Run 2014
Posted: Sun Mar 02, 2014 9:10 pm
The polar vortex returned after a brief thaw and we had perfect weather for the run. Thanks Mike O'Reilly and all the many volunteers at the Constance Bay Canadian Legion for another successful year. Thank-you Fred Fassbender, Mrs. John Smeaton, David Smeaton and Tony Hawn for attending and sharing your Bolens Diablo/Sprint memories with us. When I started putting my Diablo to-gether 10 years ago, I never imagined that one day I would be at a run talking to two guys who were responsible for building and test driving my restoration. Thanks for taking the time . You really made my day. Here are a couple of pictures.
