Ok everyone here are some directions to get to the house. An address is in the works for the house. Cant wait to see everyone.


From Robbinsville take US 129 north about a mile. Turn left onto NC 143 West
(follow Cherohala Skyway signs). Go 4 miles to STOP sign. Turn right staying on 143.
Continue on 143 for 5 miles, cross bridge at BLUE BOAR INN entrance. Continue
straight eight-tenths of a mile and turn to the right on Old Santeetlah Road directly
across the street from the bear statue. Continue on blacktop staying to the right. Then
stay right onto gravel at the 1188 sign.
If you are coming from the Cherohala Skyway, come about a mile past the Snowbird
Lodge and watch for the Old Santeetlah Road sign and bear statue on right. Make the
sharp left-hand-turn onto unmarked road. Continue on blacktop bearing to the right.
Then bear right onto gravel at the 1188 sign.

Saturday Bump!

[Pin Flare]

I wanna be there so bad! But my birthday is on the 24th and my best friend has already planned a welcome home/birthday party for me on the 24th. Might just have to come up from Columbia, SC the morning of the 23rd.

[GTM_Challenge]

Might be in for this. Need to get the car down there to see how it does before I do suspension.

Just saw this and may be down for this. Gotta switch some things around but Ive been waiting for the opportunity to get to the dragon. And to try out my new GoPro, haha.

[jstans84]

Alright whoever is riding up from Atlanta that wants to follow me, lets meet up at 9:15 at the Walmart parking lot on Barrett Parkway. I will wait around till like 9:30 before heading out. I figure meeting up there would make it to where we wouldn't all get separated in traffic.

If you are planning to follow me and are running late just let me know and we can wait for you. I will post up my cell phone number on the Facebook post, just call me and let me know you're on the way and I will wait for you.

Come on down man. I'm working on having some girls to model the 86s at the show and do some shoots. May have a photographer coming too...

[Archetype]

Sounds awesome...anyone have modified rides? Mine is in the process of being built and I'll have a thread on it soon but I'm always interested to see what people think of the mods they've done. Looking forward to seeing em on the dragon.
