Thanks John, I didn't realize you and Molly wouldn't be there this spring. I'm not planning on making the fall event this year so I guess I'll have to wait till next spring to possibly see y'all again :/

Well my bad luck never fails me and things came up this week that are gonna prevent me from going finance wise. (I was trying to put things together a lil last minute though to be honest) So im going to try to put time off in advance for the fall run if I can and see if I cant attend. Everyone be safe and have fun!

The fiance had something come up last minute so she can't copilot and I'm in meetings until 3 on Friday so I can't leave to meet up with the MI group on the way down. Unfortunately it's too long a drive all thru the night to make the drive straight down there alone so sadly, I'm out as well.

I'll be looking forward to the pictures and we'll see you all in the fall next year!

Take care and be safe

Well we are definitely going to the fall this year (I can't miss more than one or I start to get the shakes) so I am sad to hear you will not be there to lead our rag-tag group of misfits through the mountains

For all those new to the Dragon, that get queezy at high speed curve hanging and can't tear their eyes off the white ditch line, may I recommend "THE TOURIST CLASS" group for your first run on Saturday morning? Mostly made up of those who have retired from the "need for speed" crowd and would really like to actually SEE the passing scenery. A leisurely, but at times challenging (90-100 mph at one point) trip to Franklin and then north to a WONDERFUL lunch at KOSTA'S Greek Diner rounds out the memorable day. Hope you can make the trip at any speed, but if you want a "tour" go TOURIST CLASS!

We wish we could have one (or 10) drinks with you and many others, but hopefully you will be there in the fall when we can return...

So nothing happens when you click on the link I sent earlier regarding the name badge for the trip.
So here we go again.
