[urq] quattro 25 North America

Tue Apr 29 08:58:51 PDT 2008

I'll throw in my 2 cents worth on this... my urq is in pretty rough
shape (yes, still) and I drove it to Park City with the group a couple
of years ago.  It has never felt better than on that trip.  The
segment from Steamboat/Craig on into Utah was stellar.

Before I moved to CO, I lived in SC and did both of the Audifest trips
to the Hillclimb.  I had my 1st Avant and very short vacation time
then.  The 1st trip was 2 days out, 2 nights here, then 2 days back.
Caravanning is the way to go.  The 2nd time I had a bit more vacation.
 I spent 2 whole days here that time.  ;-)

Yes, parts of it were definitely unfun, but the memories are all still
very pleasant.
