Default re: 5th Annual Spring 2012 Tail of the Dragon GTG - April 6, 7, 8

I got home tonight at 9:38 - so it's just under 3 hours, with the sun setting just as I got to Blood Mountain.

What a great time this year: perfect weather, great booze (thanks Nick), great stories (thanks everyone), and the GenCoupe crowd was a blast to meet and run with! I had several "most fun" things happen - but the last minute encounter with GenCoupe's LOVECRAFT was cool - I chased him from the Bridge/River below the gap up to the gap, then down Hellbender to the lodge and mostly kept up - it was hard, missing a downshift right at first - I had to WORK IT to get a visual on him as we neared the gap. Never thought I'd see 80 on that stretch of 129!

I finally rode the DRagon with Nick - made it almost to the overlook before my stomach felt odd. Never felt that before (not due to motion, anyway). Thanks Again, Nick/13Dog/Bob !!! I still don't think I needed sucking lessons, but thanks for your help.

I counted 19 in church this morning, great turn out since we only had what - 30-some people?
