Everyone, WOW, I am totally blown away with the attendance tonight, amazing meet thank you all very much for joining us to night.

Some unfortunate business I need to address. I want to thank those of you who were patient with the Tilted Kilt service tonight. We were not expecting such a large turn-out and the Tilted Kilt was not prepared to take care of that big of a group all at once. Unfortunately a couple of people actually dined and dashed out on their bill this evening and that truly disappoints me.

I’ve talked to the managers about it, we are still on good terms. However, please, if you ever feel you are not being treated properly at our meet location, tell the staff, or if you are not comfortable doing that, come talk to me.

What a way to start 2015! Despite a small bump this was a fantastic meet to kick off 2015. Big thank you to the regulars, the semi-regulars and the new faces we had attend tonight!

See you next month,

Orlando Roadsters
