RTTHs5 Participants in here please!!
(I will move this in a couple days to the right section, just wanted everyone to see it here first)
Everyone coming this year, please note this and make your plans accordingly.
We will be doing a Tail of the Dragon run on Friday as our cruise. Several have asked me about doing this over the years, and we will do it this year. This means you need to be here, ready to go about 11am on Friday.
I have also talked to a local vendor, and we will finish up the cruise at his place for our dinner that afternoon. I will share who that is, but trust me, the shop tour will be something you will not want to miss. For those that can not get here early, there will be a mini cruise for you too, to the vendor's place.
This will be an exciting trip, so be sure and make plans to be here earlier.

No excuses Allen. Flights are much cheaper this year, and you got a place to stay if you get here.

If you wanted to make it an all day cruise you could also consider the Cherohala skyway for next year. Much better road for fun to me. I've done both for years on motorcycles. The Cherohala is great, plus the local law enforcement was really cracking down hard on the dragon last year, not sure about this year. Also I'm not sure of the route you have planned, but wear's valley road to Townsend and then cut across the Foothills parkway to the dragon is nice.

Bill,
Count me in, I'm on vacation that week. I'll send payment soon, but I'm still not sure if the wife is coming. Although if I took her on this she would never get in the car again.

It's a story to remember for sure. The only not-so-funny part was when he started picking away at the hole in his broken windshield with bare hands. It was nasty.
Like watching a horror movie. He was actually trying to get back into his wreck. Who does that? Someone looking for his stash, that's who.
He got hostile when I tried to stop him..... Help yourself, buddy. One way or another, Run Thru the Hills is always exciting.________________
