Robe Race oh eight

Here are a few pictures from the first annual unofficial Robe Race this past weekend. It was a great day, with a big turnout, brilliant sun, and low carnage factor. Thanks to Todd Gillman of The Range Life for hosting and organizing. All photos by Amy Keeling, compressed and poorly white balanced by myself. We will be passing these and many other originals on to Todd. If you see any misinformation or unnamed boaters that you recognise, let me know.
