Breckenridge, Colorado – Meeting time was approximately 9:00 at the Walmart parking lot at the Evergreen exit off I-70. When I arrived, two Defenders, a Disco, and a Range Rover were already there, lurking behind the shrubbery. Bob and Pat Lohman were there in their white ’95 D-90 and so was Kristy Long in hers, also a ’95. The red ’94 Disco belonged to Mike and Sylvia Arnold, and Marc Richardson’s ’92 Range Rover completed the group. Introductions were made and we wasted little time getting on the road, the V-8s stuck behind my ’70 Series with its wheezing 2.25 liter 4 cylinder.
Parker, Colorado – Matthew and Catherine Schulze hosted a social friendly, kids friendly and testosterone friendly BBQ on behalf of the Solihull Society . Over twenty Rovers and other unmentionable 4×4′s lined up behind the monster garage and goat barn. Matt and Cat procured a 50 gallon half drum that was engineered into a grill by their neighbor, Mr. Bob, the owner of Maud the horse. They also borrowed a large tent from the homeowners association. The tent soon became the center of eating, drinking, sitting and spouting anything that cam to mind. It also buffered the occupants somewhat from the usual afternoon rain and gusting wind.
