Default Early Summer Run on the Dragon?

I know, I know. . .I **just** finished with "Wake the Dragon" and "Outer Banks Run," but I already miss everyone!

Lots of folks have asked about a Summer Dragon Meet. What do you think? No true "event" formation. No registration fee, everyone on their own type of thing. Maybe 8 - 10 S2000's? Something like last year's April meet.

I'm in for it.

Anyone else?

I would love to run the Dragon again. I was actually thinking about going back sometime this summer so it would be even better to go with other S2000's.

Thanks,

Probably make it a Saturday run, all day. It will still be organized, a simple itinerary, etc. That's just my style.

Unless of course, folks want an organized meet like "Wake the Dragon" or "DragonBall Run" (Geez, what am I getting myself into).

If we have interest with a small group, then the need to have an organized meet will be unnecessary. We can easily coordinate with the Jameson Inn - Alcoa and just have times to leave/arrive/etc.

There are LOTS of restaurants within walking distance of the Jameson. MashTaters, Texas Roadhouse, O'Charley's and Up the Creek. In addition to these, there are some other restaurants within a 3 or 4 mile drive (Cracker Barrel and Pizzeria Uno) just to name a few.

Simply make a plan to start on a specific date (any Saturday) in early/mid Summer. Everyone is on their own for lunch and dinner but we stay as a group. Robbinsville SubWay is only a 20 minute drive (correct that, a nice twisty drive) away. Last year, in April, about 10 S2000's got together and we really had a great time. So much so that this April, a yearly run was done, "Wake the Dragon."

Let's see what more folks think on this.

Has anyone heard from Sumir lately? I talked to him for about 5 seconds the other day, sounds like he's still swamped with studying...
