Default Re: 550x19 coker radials

I went to the Rhinebeck swap meet a few years back. I was staying in the Carriage House for the Shyler Mansion, where Hamilton and Burr had the argument that ended with Hamilton dead and Burr looked down upon. Anyway, went at about 5:45 to be with the first to show up. Some guy from Pennsylvania and I walked around just a bit listening to the vendors snoring away and I knew I wasn't at a California meet. Here at that time I'd be parking two miles away and waiting an hour in line to get into the bigger meets. Came back about 9:00 and had a great time, by then a few of the booths were open and the people getting friendly. Fun day but I was 3,000 miles from home so all I bought was stuff I could carry in my pockets. Went back later in the day and the bride had me walk back about a mile as she had visions of driving a Mustang Convertible home. She had missed a zero in the asking price, so she rode home with me. Fun time though, I like going to these meets and talking with the people.
