Thanks Glenn,

I'm new to this esteemed group...in ownership anyway! Been a fan of the Red for a long time, but only acquired one in the last few weeks. Long story, but mine was an amazing gift. (See my 2 posts in the picture gallery, 1973-77).

Kinda' late in the game now, but I know a few other Red owners...was thinking next year might be fun to get a group together to participate in the Mechanicsville Christmas Parade...something along the lines of "Santa's Horses" or some such thing.

Thoughts?
