Best advice I can give is go with a good crew (check), don't get too excited and relax, and above all call for a spotter and LISTEN to them. All will be well.

Do you have an open seat for a rider? Either that, or I may have to bring the KTM to follow along.

I'm planning on coming out but have a question, is there enough to keep a 5 1/2 yo boy busy Fri thru Sun morn? Last thing I want is the Devil incarnate getting irritated. Anyone else plan on bringing kids about that age?
EDIT: One more thing, what kind (if any) amenities are there at the camp ground (water, toilets, etc.)?
Thanks

There is a stream nearby. They have port-a-jons on site. They were nice last year.
We will have a large canopy like last year as well as a small generator to run lights, music and some fans. Everyone liked the fans.
There were quite a few children last year. Dan K always brings his kids and from what I can tell they have a great time. Lot's to do in Tellico.

I'm not sure Dan K is going to be there this year. The Avocado is not road worthy right now and probably won't be ready in time.

Hopefully the shirt design will be up by the end of this week if not sooner. It has been a group effort and I think they will turn out nice. More details TBA.

Yea, you are right down the street from me! Will do once I get the passenger to confirm. Let me know if you need me to bring anything up there for you. I know organizers sometimes have a lot of loot and other things to bring. i should have some room in Ms. Jackson.

If you can get it to your office, I can pretty much swing by any day.

Jeez, Grain Fed is represented in everyone of those pics by either himself or his rig (Scion tC too)! I'm really hoping to get there, above all things, I need to get back to my fighter weight with some good UC grub...

We'd love to see you there, you can even bring the scion! I'm sure there's plenty of space in trucks if you want to ride along...
