Ok who is interested in running the dragon November 11? I was talking to Steve about it earlier today and we are both ready to tame the beast, before the roads get icy up that way:redspot

That's funny.. our club drive is on the 11th too. We're doing the "prison run" this time. Too much liability on the dragon now. I hope for both of us the weather is nice

Do you have a map of the "prison run" ? I have been on those roads in the past and remember the fun curves..

Just might have to head up that way again...

And ( Prob dumb ? )what is the "too much liability on the dragon run ?"

Thanks....

No map; I can drive there but can't really give good directions. It's pretty much in the middle of nowhere with no good landmarks (besides Brushy Mtn). Great road... we went there last Sat. morning at 10am and passed 1 car the whole time. It is ~6 miles each way and I counted 115 curves each way. The drives to the dragon were just getting too fast and there is too much traffic, bad drivers, people crossing the yellow line, etc for it to be a good decision to go. 99% of the time you'd be fine but last time we went we saw a guy crash his bike and DIE so needless to say I can't really get excited to go back.

We're meeting at that same Kroger we always meet at on Nov 11th at 9:00 am. The road is about 30-40 min from there. After that we are going to eat lunch at Big Ed's Pizza (pretty good stuff). Anyone is welcome to join us.

I should really type something up with the directions (turn by turn with distances and everything). It's kind of nice that nobody knows about it though :)

sounds like a plan it typically takes me 1-1:30 hours to get up there. So if we leave by 7:30 we should be fine.

If I'm not there at 7, call me. Don't say a word when I pick up. Just have Steve hold your phone near the exhaust and gun your motor a few times. Do that, and I'll be there in 10 minutes.

Since I'll likely be the only officer there for the drive I'll probably be organizing it. I'm going to start a new thread and if you guys don't care please post if you are going to come so I know how many to wait for. Should be a blast
