Default w1ngman's Wake The Dragon Pics

All I can say is...

WHAT A WEEKEND!!!


My most humble thanks to airgate for making organizing a huge event like Wake The Dragon look like a piece of cake. Raul, this was a smooth and wonderful meet. It literally could not have been any better if we'd begged. Okay...it could have lasted longer...but that ain't your fault .

Anyway...had an awesome time. Met up with a lot of [what already seems like] old friends. Met a number of new friends. Even opted out of sleep and cleared a set of headlights for Jaime6 before I left Knoxville .

Only saying it again because you deserve it soooo much: Raul, thank you for a great weekend!!!!! In appreciation, here are some memories... The captions below each one should speak for the pics juuuuuust fine.











- Dave

Great pics, thanks for sharing! I didn't make this trip, but would also like to that Raul for his time and skills at setting this up. Now that he has it perfected, the fall trip will be a piece of cake to arrange. I'm going in the fall even if I have to use the credit card and don't have a dog sitter! I'll leave the wife behind and just go!

I wanted to go soooooo bad!
