Re: Lime Rock in October

Yes, rim shots are preferred with salt adding both flavor and traction.

The old uphill Armco was so low with dirt behind it that they could line 'em up on the top edge and you could snag and drop off at mirror level. Now you have to loosen the arm restraints and reach way up like a Dunkin Donuts drive-thru... And they call this progress?

The nice thing about the rain is that it slows you down enough to grab a shot, some pretzels and a beer chaser without spilling any. (Don't try this at home kids... Objects are closer than they appear...)
