I wanted to do a midnight run on Thursday evening. I guess I will post it up as a thread.

....Although it won't be a "Midnight" run...those coming from the dinner in Gatlinburg, from the Cincy Caravan, on Thursday...will be running the Dragon @ night, on the way, over to Fontana...

I remember that run because it was 1.) wet as shit and 2.) I went sideways near gravity cavity... Bourbon was consumed by all participants in copious quantities upon our return to Fontana

Remember that the Pit Stop is not open late so make sure you have fuel before leaving.

And 2 bars is not enough to go to the gravel lot from Fontana and back.
