That's pretty awesome that you still have your BMT sticker on (I do, too ). Awesome. Don't give up on trying to convince me to go with you next time.
What is that little pink and blue thing right above and to the left of the "Tree of Shame" sign? Oh and what's that orange thingy underneath your sidemarker?

Oh you're coming next time! I'm hoping we can get a bunch of people from our area to come represent! There is a company called killboy that takes pics of cars driving the dragon... check out the link below!

awesome pics !!! Looks like some great scenery.
David, and Janet, how does it compare to the BMT ?
Man that sure looks like fun. May have to try to make that one of these years.

David your photos came out great. Climbing on the roof of your cabin was so worth it!
Getting closer to home, I'll be passing through Springfield tomorrow. I've done about 3,000 miles so I think I need to go home and clean the car for MOM09. You would have had fun today, I got lost on some moonshine roads and ended up at Makers Mark. Nice place to visit.

****How does it compare to the BMT****
In many ways it's similar. The organizers of both groups are very dedicated and do an excellent job. The WTD is on a larger scale and you have the opportunity to choose from several different organized spirited rides or just go off on your own adventure. Each and every road is excellent for miles. The dragon itself can be very crowded during the middle of the day (there were something like 4 motorcycle rallies nearby, the mini-coopers and VW's. On Saturday we had a "Monster Rollout", they blocked the road while all 123 cars drove together the 11 mile Dragon. And you can always go with the group that drive the dragon at night.
There is so much to tell, any chance you will be at the MOM09? David and I can tell you all about everything. We may try to show the DVD they gave us, I haven't seen it yet (I've been taking the scenic route back home) but I think it may give you a better idea on what the roads are like.

Took me a while to find a familiar face on Killboy's page, but I finally found one! 4/25/09, Page 10, #244 - oheim has his serious driving face on. Ah, and #268 (and 269 and 270) on page 11 father and son! Oh snaps, you're rockin' the ok.s2ki.com decal on your windscreen, too! Heck yeah! Now where's Janet? Could that be you in #360 on page 15 (4/24/09) and #413 on 17... or is that someone else? Found oheim and ChuckWoody (as a passenger this time) on page 18 (#441-444)!

Ah, I think I definitely found you, Janet! #621 and #622 on page 25 (4/24/09). More of oheim and ChuckWoody on page 28 (ChuckWoody driving this time)... #685 thru #687. This is so kewl!!
Now I'm gonna have to go search for those pix of Janet&Travis from last November. Dang, at this rate, I'm gonna be up all night. Aw site is down!
