POSTPONED: Tail of the Dragon Meet/Throwdown May 24
Meet has been postponed
We'll plan for a few weeks from now. A family member's failing health means that I'll need to be free to travel to Charlotte on short notice. Thanks for understanding.
We're long overdue for a Tail of the Dragon get-together up here in the mountains. Springtime is here, it's starting to warm up, and the Dragon is starting to get busy. I haven't been up there yet this season, but I'm seeing pictures and itching to go. The 240 won't be there, but hopefully I'll have the 760 going in time. I better.
ANYWAY
Here's the deal: I live in Franklin, NC, which is about an hour (normal) or 45min (spirited) drive away from the Tail. There's a bunch of really, really great roads out here that we can mess around on as well.
I live in a house in downtown Franklin. Here are the available accommodations:
Big comfy couch (1x)
Big comfy chair (1x)
Small couch (1x)
Floor (1x)
We can easily fit a bunch of people in sleeping bags/air mattresses on the floor, but I don't have any extra beds. If you want one of the couches or the chair, speak now or forever hold your peace. There's a grassy backyard of sorts that you're welcome to put a tent up on, but be forewarned, it's a hill. You might roll away.
The general plan is everyone get here sometime Friday (5/23), we drive/hit the tail Saturday and we run some local roads/y'all head out Sunday.
We may try and camp at Fontana, but it's their peak season. Use the following link to keep an eye on availability, and if we decide to camp, reserve your spot in advance. Choose "Campsite Tent" from the dropdown to check availability: https://www.fontanareservations.com/Trip-Planner/Lodging
