Z club's a little snooty from the few interactions I've had with them...

Good to hear that the 86 crowd is a little bit more open/friendly. I'm fairly used to that coming from the Volkswagen crowd, so I'm glad. Any sort of meets or anything planned anytime soon? I'd like to make it out and meet some people.

Back of the Dragon days was 99% bikes, the only cars on display were from a dealer, and they had a Raven FR-S. The drive up, and back was great, very light traffic. We got behind one car very early on the north bound, that pulled over the first chance they got, and we had 30 miles of just us, until we caught another near the end, that waved us by. Southbound was very similar, caught a truck near the northend, that turned off after a few miles, and then nothing until a mini van near the Hungry Mother lookout. We stopped, and let them get away, and took off again, as we got near the state park, traffic picked up, but we had caught a pair of motorcycles that slowed us by then...yeah, we caught up to the bikes, granted they were Harleys, not sport bikes.

Awesome drive up, even the roads getting there, but traffic was heavier on those, and drivers treated the suggested curve speeds as law, lol.
