So, to all you guys headed for Tedfest right now...

Have a great trip/visit/etc. I really wish Ben and I were able to come up this year, but alas, we cannot. Couldn't blow off the big family VACA. Wifey would have killed me. We will see you all next year.

We did a compression test on my car, I get between 125 and 150 on all cylinders. Oh, and my spark plugs have definitely seen better days.

Thanx guys and I wish you were here to enjoy the fun. Friday night was a blast at my Casa with over 30 people enjoying pizza and refreshments. Will try to post pics on Sunday night if I have some time.

Thanks Ted and volunteers for putting on another great event! As usual, the best local event for classic BMW's.

Ted's event was even better than the one I attended three years ago! We got to check out Toronto this time around, there's lots to see. It was great to see old friends again and meet new ones. The porchetta was just like I remembered!

Jeremy found his bazeball!!!

So I'm here is Soo St. Marie and just checked out the casino. It sure isn't like Vegas...

Give Ted a little recovery time. We dragged him to the Toronto Ribfest tonight. It was pretty awesome, we'll have to go as a larger group if possible next year. Great food, live blues, it was a good time.

Brandon, Matt, and I are heading out tomorrow morning after breakfast. It was great to see everyone who showed up.

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go pass out after too much ribs, beer, and fried cheesecake.

I had a really good time at Ted's bbq that took place after the grass show. I was great to see lots of old friends and meet some new folks. I particular, it was good to see Ted's family (it's been a while), Jeremy, Eddie, Peter R., Eric, Matt, Shawn D., Cactus, alijonny, just to name a few.

And of course Ted. Here's a pic of Ted and I as he was helping me park my bike.

And, I'm looking forward to seeing more pics that were taken by the offical Festival photographer, Shawn D..

I had an awesome time at my first Tedfest! All of the Kalmans are gracious hosts and I want to thank them again for their hospitality!

Matt (Graphite) downloaded my pics from my camera, did the raw-to-jpg conversion, and transferred the jpgs to Ted's computer. Ted should be able to get a selection up later -- I actually don't have any of them at the moment.

Cactus · Post by **Cactus** » Jul 04, 2011 12:12 PM

Thanks for everything Ted. The whole weekend was an asolute blast. It's really nice to be able to put faces with names and cars too. Some guys brought some really beautiful machines, the pictures don't do them justice.

I can't wait for next year.

Harper and I had a great time! Too bad we have to drive so far to hang out with sick people like ourselves.

Thanks to Ted, Diana and family along with all the volunteers who make the event possible.

We drove just under a 1000 miles total with the best mpg at 23.54. Was glad to give Ted and Eddie a ride in the car.

Will post pictures later.

Your E28 is now in my insane car category. By far the most powerful boosted E28 I've been in.
It was also an absolute pleasure to ride shotgun in your new gem. Thanks again for that. It was the perfect ending to a fantastic day with quality friends.

Much thanks to Ted for putting on another great BMW event! Was absolutely a blast. Next year I'm going to try to plan ahead and come for at least a day longer so I can actually go into Toronto for once.

Was really good to see everyone. It is always a great crowd. Lots of regulars and lots of new faces to put with board names.

Ketchup. I'm waiting to see pics of you driving with the top down squirting the bottle into your mouth with some blowing by in the wind. DO IT!

Guido, I made it through customs with my bag of cocaine without them seeing it! SCORE!

Next year we'll have to see some of the missing people again. Andy, you were missed! Hope the wedding was great.

To end it off there is a huge thanks that goes out to Ted's wife for putting up with our shit and baking like 500 chocolate chip cookies for us to devour all weekend!

Can't wait till next year

Hey Matt. It was a pleasure to see you again. You have to try the hands out on the couch routine on Dianna next year. To be exact Matt. Dianna baked 60 dozen cookies from Thursday till Sunday afternoon which I did not know until today.
