You might consider a short stopover at Fontana Dam on Rt 28, seeing as you're going right by it. It's pretty impressive and not far from the Dragon!

Count me in.
Can't think of a better way to break in the new motor.
Thanks Robert for organizing this.

Ron, The BG event starts Wednesday Night.

Count me in, I'll do the run on the way to the start point!

Only have to pre register for sleep inn (end of day one)? Others we get rate at check-in. Is this correct? Putting in for my time off work.
