+++++++++++++++

We did the TotD last year, and several times in the past, so we aren't going this year.
There are MANY fine roads that compare in the southwest VA-NC-TN area. Many are documented on the Internet. You probably could try different ones every weekend, for a YEAR...

I cover the costs for the website and printing lanyards/name badges. Mostly because it’s fun to do. Hope you can join us!
Sounds good, I'm clear that weekend. I'll wait till details are worked out.

Default Timing is Everything

Living in Charlotte, the Tail of the Dragon is not too far away. Almost did it this week but the weather forecast was a little iffy so we deferred. Now we can do it as part of the group!

Darn! On my bucket list but I'll be driving the wife out to SoCal in mid-May. Maybe next year.

Registration is live! Sorry for the delay in getting this organized. My real life has kept me busy.

Here is the link with details, registration, and hotel discount for Tapoco. www.f-type.org

I will work to keep everyone updated across the various platforms but will eventually move to email as we get closer.

Please register once per vehicle. There is a place on the registration form to indicate if you will have a passenger. That will help us organize the details that make it a fun event.

Recommend booking Tapoco sooner rather than later, if that’s where you want to stay. They usually sell out. Our hold is good until Friday, I believe.

So are the rooms held under 'Jaguar'? I just checked and there's only a cabin left.

There is a code. The link on the event website should pre-populate the search screen with it. If that doesn’t work, lmk and I’ll dig up the direct code.

Unfortunately the timing didn't work out for me. Hopefully I'll be able to join you all on next one!

Looking forward to seeing pics…

I'll add that this was my first time at the Dragon, and Mel did an extremely good job of organizing things. Agenda's, maps, addresses, radio's, etc, etc. Expectations were exceeded. I will also say that 15 Jags running through tunnels together sounds epic

By the way, if any of you are located in Northeast, we are doing a day-run by Kutztown PA on June 30th. I'll be posting details soon here: https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/u...e-30th-280153/

I wish I could have met you all. I had planned the time off work but dates didn't align for me. My daughter returned from a 6months stint in Europe and I opted to pick her up. I will plan to enjoy the chorus soon. (as long as the event happens again)
