Default Any regrets from Wake the Dragon?

There are 3 things I wish I had done this weekend that I didnt do:

1) Make a night run on the Dragon
2)Take a ride in a supercharged S
3)Get a pic of Jen's "S" tattoo. I couldn't figure out how to get a picture of it without looking like a pervert Now none of my friends believe me that a girl actually got an S2000 tattoo

Westside Billy, and myself make a night run a tradition each time he comes down to Tennessee. We tried to find others that wanted to join us, but nobody tooks us up on our offer.

Friday night was a fantastic night too. Not a cloud in the sky or a car on the road. We had all 11 miles to ourselves. However, we did not make it back to Knoxville until 3:00 AM.

You should join us at the next event.

1. Not taking the night run
2. Drinking too much Friday night
3. Not sleeping enough
4. Going to Cherhola instead of running the Dragon more
5. Drinking too much Saturday night
6. Not sleeping enough
7. Taking the Blue Ridge Parkway home above the posted speed limit
8. The Death March......oops....I mean....drive home




But I'd do it all over again tomorrow It was too much fun!
