We are planning to make it this year. 700 miles in 3 days has made it tough to fit in. Now that the Rampage lift is working we can put the Valkyrie in the truck and drive over. Have 3 rides in 5 weeks with this ride being the furthest. One to Cherokee and then the FCR in Robinsville, it's been hard to ride to each. Looking forward to riding some nice roads in my home state of Indiana.

I hear ya, Jimmy! I just don't understand trailering to a motorcycle event. Hillbilly Highway was 1500 miles, and that's a nearby one. DRU ends up 1100 miles, just a walk on the beach, pretty much a normal weekend. FCR 2016 was ~2500 miles, with all the sightseeing along the way. It's why I have and maintain motorcycles, to RIDE. |

I guess Gabby got a little excited. I am not aware that they are ready to take reservations yet. We do have lots of rooms blocked off. Gabby, in the future please wait until we release the information before you do. I guess you didn't get your name for nothing. |

Since the proverbial cat has now escaped the bag, is registration now open? Or will registering now cause problems? Is this event open to all? Will there be spare alternators on site? Is Indiana a dry county? |

Booked it for 3 nights. Will arrive sometime on Thursday and checking out Sunday morning. They are ready for us. I did not need to speak with Priscilla. By the dates I gave, The very nice young and beautiful (assuming) desk clerk asked if I was part of the Dragon Round Up and I proudly said "That's Me". Then we both sang See You in September and skipped off arm-in-arm down the road. I was wonderful. |
