Hey Mike, beautiful pics with all those e30s. I just googled and found a video on the "dry" bleeding. Going to view and see if I try it. I have new SS lines and same RBF, with flush ready to happen, trying to see if I can do it before the Vintage. My SS lines are 13 years old so doing some preventive replacement.

Good luck with the line swap and bleed! The Vintage and some potential HPDEs this year are reasons I swapped out my original lines. Unfortunately The Vintage has been postponed to September...

The NCC Dashing Through the Mountains Tour
I took my soon-to-be-four-year-old son, Carter, on the latest NCC BMW CCA tour this past weekend. It was a full day of driving and nearly 300 miles of fantastic mountain roads in Virginia and West Virginia. The E30 got quite a workout. Carter didn't complain once - he was a happy camper the whole time. I packed a cooler for late lunch and we headed home after that. I've really enjoyed the one-on-one time with Avery and Carter on these tours (they've now been on two each). Here are some photos that I took:

I don't know of anyone still going in May, though I do know some folks that are going to hit Tail of the Dragon around that time.

Here's a photo dump from the last few weeks. I'm not visiting R3V as much as I used to these days. I am posting a lot of photos on Instagram though (https://www.instagram.com/mike.bevels/).

Wow, it has been over a month. I've been busy with kids' activities, work, driving, taking photos, der Bayerische magazine, and loads of other stuff. Here's a photo dump of some of E30 related content. I have some VERY EXCITING NEWS coming up in July. And an HPDE weekend scheduled at the end of June. I've also spent some time updating the table of contents of this thread to bring it up to date.
Someone caught me leaving Dulles Landing Cars and Coffee...
