Tail of the Dragon - Mountain Run - July 12th

[Nemesys]

UPDATED INFO:


Meet up at Starbucks, 50 Earnest W Barrett Pkwy, Marietta, Ga 30066 at 7:30 and depart at 8:00.

A quick meeting before we go up as it is a 3+ hour drive. Safety briefing will be held once we get to the mountains.

Things to bring: Two way radio for communication (22 channel), lots of water/ cooler if desired (ice packs not actual ice), cameras, go-pros, extra batteries/ SD cards, folding chairs IF you don't mind them being tossed around your trunk, and I recommend having some cash on hand in the event credit cards get frozen, stolen, or lost.

Things not to bring: Any unnecessary lose items in your car and pets as they tend to get sick.

Other info: You can rent Go-Pro and Garmin cameras from a few places up there, but there is no guarantee they will be available and it is a bit pricey. There are many places to buy shirts, stickers, an other merchandise.

Not trying to scare anyone off making the trip, but it is going to be an all day event. 12+ hours. We will have a breaks for lunch and dinner as well as breaks whenever needed once we get up there, but it is a long time in a car. Just something to be aware of.

Posting for those not on our Facebook group.

Will share more details when we have it, along with meeting spots!

I have a pretty good loop I do that would take us all day and it would make for a very long day for you guys if yall only come up for one day.

I asked to join the group on FB even though I'm not in Georgia.

I'll be staying in Gatlinburg that weekend and we were planning to do the dragon on Monday. Depending on the details maybe we'll change to Sunday.

It'll be a good warmup for the Smoky Mountain Rally with Rally North America that leaves Knoxville on Tuesday.

Is there any chance you guys could come up for the weekend??? Theres a huge Cars and Coffee just north of the Dragon in Knoxville on the 12th starting at 08:00. The first one of the year brought out over 2000 cars.

Sent you a PM too but...

EDIT: Apparently I can't read and thought it was Saturday. I'll have to check with my co-driver but coffee usually wins her over.

Damn deployment...This would be worth the 8 hour drive

Saw 2 bike wrecks there today. Multiple ambulances and cops on the Dragon.

While I'd love to meet up with you guys I have a feeling it will just end up being a mess trying to catch up to you in the middle of the trip.
