Morning Coffee with Patrick

For over 20 years you were the go to place for RCCrawling tech, stories, meetups, and general shenanigans.
You will be missed. - Photo courtesy of Mikes RC World
Dear RCCrawler.com,
You were there when I first got to Austin in 2007 and I desperately needed a hobby.
Hours spent reading tech, sharing stories and meeting new friends.
You helped me pick my first truck, get my first sponsorship and sell my first product.
I supported you as much as you did me.
Heck, we were still posting up new products on there last week!
Call me old fashioned but nothing beats a well run forum.
FB is great for easy access but if you actually want to follow something in depth ... not so much.
If you readers ever visited RCCrawler and joined up on the forums then you know what I mean.
If not, well you missed out on a great place.
Thanks for the memories RCC.
