Phil I'll volunteer. I've been to the Gap several times and usually lead a group up to the blue ridge once a month or so in the summer. Plus I just got my FD up and running reliably, I'm no in the mood to trash it. I've had some track time as well.

On another note we might also want to see about doing a run thrugh the Charahalaa Skyway as well. It's not as nasty as the Gap is and it's a good 2-3hr ride. It goes so high up that the last time I did it on the 600 I felt like I was riding a 250.(very high altittude)

Yeah, I've heard the same thing. I'd be up for running that also. Could take a group on Saturday from either side of Deals Gap down to the parkway and ride it, or even possibly after lunch Sunday in TN do the same thing. It might make a long day of driving on Sunday for some with long rides back home afterwards but we've all probably done longer road trips that were't half as fun.

Sounds great speedracer 2235.

If you want to volunteer, meet us at the main office of Fontana Village around 7:15AM. We'll head out to the dragon for an hour or so and we'll discuss about how we should organize the run.

I'm going to help out on this but prefer not to lead since I have to help video the event. I'll be most likely standing on the side of the road filming.

Far as Charahalaa skyway, I would love to go! Since we really don't have any plans for sunday, I figure we could head up there sunday early afternoon. After we check out from fontana and after we had our breakfast.

I still have medium and large shirts for sale. $15 each, which includes lunch.

Also, FYI....

Dinner will be @ the Fontana Village. All you can eat dinner for $13.90.

$13.90 will include drinks, tax, and tip.

I would need head count on Saturday.

Guys-
I've got bad news. After my Saturday night dyno session, I'm having cold start issues, and she wont even start if its at or above operating temperature. I think I'm going to have to sit this one out.

Chattanooga to Deal's Gap:
Meeting at Hamilton Place Mall at 4:30-5:00 (Eastern Time)

The Hamilton Place Blvd exit is exit 4A and it is 3.1 miles passed the I-24/I-75 merger


At the end of the long ramp, you'll come to a couple of red lights that are real close together. Go straight through both of them and look to the right. We will be meeting in the middle of the parking lot.

The parking lot will be roughly between Profitts and Parison's.
