whats the back ground so those of us who were not here 5 years ago can realize what landmine they just stepped on.
No, no landmine, thankfully its a running joke within the club.
Somewhere around 2005'ish we had the bus serviced by club member Randy Melton. Randy lives is Bailey, NC. I was tasked with retrieving the bus from Randy's shop. I get there, hop in the bus and head out to the monthly club meeting.
Welllllllll, there is a train track that runs right thru Bailey, you can choose to go over the tracks or UNDER the tracks. I chose to go under, oblivious to the fact that I was not driving a CRX but a pretty big bus.
LUCKILY the bus was virtually the MAXIMUM height to make it under the bridge. As I was about halfway under the bridge I heard a "CRASH", that was the PA speakers being removed from the bridge. So I did what any good soul would do and kept going and made it thru. I hopped out and picked up the PA speakers and headed to the meeting. Luckily I didn't do a ton of damage. I screwed up the HVAC a little and the rear hatch.
There were many animated GIF's of the incident for the following Xmas party thanks to Mike Westerfield.
