Dear Peter,

I am delighted to have done nothing more than be Gerry's sidekick and tool passing assistant and poor taker of pictures in this escapade. As you well know, Gerry is the mechanic not me but as his friend I have ridden shotgun on his regular Thursday trips to fettle the Lynx.

Gerry gets a distinct pleasure in working on vehicles because people would like them fixed unlike his everyday work.

How you were ever able to change gears as well as you did, still is incredible when you could see how that carrier assembly was on the shaft. You were so lucky, we shook our heads the whole way home after that discovery. We feel you must have horseshoes around every corner.

Any goggles and a good toque will be the order of the day for much more driving this fall, I can recall the syndrome of "Ferret forehead" gained one Remembrance Day in Ottawa, one that you will repeat if not suitably dressed, we forget so very quickly the protection afforded by a windshield (windscreen).

It has been fun to be a along for the ride. Fun is the key word in all of this.
