I am glad I am not the only one to do this.  Years ago I left the
Beverly Beach campground on the Oregon coast to to into town.  Meandered
all through the campground and up to the highway. Entered Highway 101
and as I got up to speed there was a loud roaring noise in the back.  I
had left the top up on my '68 Westy, which was hinged from the front.
The wind buffeting shook the dickens out of it but no damage.  I made
the mistake of telling my wife and I still hear about this gaff!

Must be something about the Oregon coast . . .
