I have tossed around Gary and I coming to the spring Tail of the Dragon meet, but dang....kids, school, work and a dog-it's not looking very promising for the spring. Fall looks much better. I'm still trying to see if I could arrange it all and we can come.

On a separate note I emailed the people who have the site in that old post about trucks and driving, here is their response:
Ann:
The trucks are really no problem for alert drivers. There is only one a
day at most and they are traveling slow. Every accident involving a
truck was the car/cycles fault. They run into the truck after it has
stopped. It you are reasonably alert and going somewhat near the speed
limit you'll have fun and no problems. It is actually safer than driving
on the Interstate.

From everything I can see it will be an excellent time. Maybe I could tape the dog and kids to a wall for the weekend, what trouble could they get into then???
--> I think the question is what trouble will I be in when I get home!
