What's the plan with the hotel? Are there reservations like last year, or should we just book our own at this point?

Only a week and a half away from the 3rd annual dragon run. The run is open to everyone who would want to come join! I recommend the Historic Tapoco lodge for a place to stay as it is only 10 minutes from deals gap where we will all meet up Friday morning on the 22nd. Please make sure you fill up with fuel before getting to the meeting spot at deals gap as the closest gas stations from there are 30 minutes away. We will have lunch at the regular spot “The Hub” on Friday. I will be around the area on Thursday making a few runs, if anyone comes early and wants to join shoot me a pm.
Also to everyone that is coming please send me a pm to confirm you will be there so I can get a total head count. Let me know if anyone has questions! I will do a final update for the meet on Monday the 18th. |

To everyone that is coming to the event, please bring a two way radio, we will be able to communicate while on the drive with everyone. If you don’t have one they can be purchased at Walmart, bestbuy, etc. they are pretty cheap, 20-30 bucks gets a decent one. I will have a couple extra if anyone shows up forgetting theirs!
The weather so far looks decent, highs in the 50’s during the day and low 30’s at night. Small chance of rain on Saturday , but looks like scattered showers late afternoon/evening. Friday looks to be good. I will be watching the weather but overall looks to be good! Definitely going to be warmer than last year though! Last edited by Get lit; 11-15-2019 at 09:55 AM.. |

Ok, these are the final details for the meet. We will meet on Friday morning at 9am at the motorcycle resort at deals gap. We will leave out around 10am from deals gap for our drive. Please remember to fill up with fuel! As of right now the weather is looking fair for Friday. They are calling for a chance of rain in the area but this could change over the next few days. Saturday is looking really good. I will be heading up on Wednesday along with another member. We will be around the area all day Thursday and making some runs on the dragon. For anyone that comes in Thursday and wants to join send me a pm. Also I will have my radio on and it will be on channel 5 so you may be able to reach me that way. I think most people coming will be staying at the Tapoco lodge. For those that have not stayed there they have a really good restaurant on site! Cell phone service is a hit or miss around the area. Anyways I look forward to another great year and good times! If anyone has any questions or needs any other info please let me know. Everyone please have safe travels!!

If I'm late to the game, what channel on the radios do you guys think you'll use? Hoping I can find you guys this way, just in case. I'm heading out early Friday AM from Atlanta.
No E90 anymore. I'll be in the red-neck American car

I have two extra radios to loan for the day.
Everyone needs to bring a heavy jacket. Even when it's sunny, there will be times you'll want it.

The Tail of the Dragon instagram page posted a beautiful photo of the road today! Super sad I'm missing it but will definitely go next year. Looks beautiful in fall.
Also, with radio setup a good idea is to run an external antenna with extra range on the trunk. I can gather links to the parts needed on amazon if anyone is interested

Better late than never...
I was busy and didn't know if I was going to make it. I did find time to come up with 2 shirt ideas, but I ran out time to produce them. Attached, I hope, is a PDF of 2 designs if you'd like to take your own initiative and create a shirt for yourself. I can also provide you with the art via email if that works. Just reach out. 3rd_Annual_Tail_of_the_Dragon_20191119.pdf

Maybe next year will work out. My daughter would have loved to go on this.
