The 2010 Deals Gap Meet is set in stone!
Where: Tail of the Dragon Vacation Rentals near Cherohala Skyway and Deals Gap GPS = N35 20.195 W83 53.440
When: Sept 17th through the 26th 2010
Cost: Lodging came to $166.13 per person for 10 days, 9 nights! This was based on 8 confirmed people. The price is to be paid up front and is non-refundable for these first 8 people. You will have to find a replacement and collect your refund from them. We'll do what we can to help your search but cannot guarantee a body. We can take 10 in the house and there is room for people to use the garage which has a sink, fridge and a 1/2 bath with a couple pullouts. Any extra people would pay the same amount with their money being used for the groceries (Breakfast and dinners only). If one of you outside of the original 8 cannot make it, we will refund you and have to pitch out money for groceries.
Who: Thus far, 7 confirmed but no one will be there the whole 10 days. They are as follows - Billy(FZ1riderNY), Tony(NJFZ1), Tony's friend Vadim, David(Earlzach) and his Dad, Harry, Joe (Currently), a friend of Eric) is in as well as Crazyjoe!
UPDATE: We now have open slots at the $166.13 per person. Please contact FZ1inNH for details!
We have room for three more people per night if you'd like to stop over for one to three nights. $30 a night per person for stragglers and they go in the garage. That will be the final offer and it is limited to 3 per night, 1st come, 1st served. Meals are not included unless all 8 original paid members are paid back, then this money will go toward groceries and gratuity for Ron and Nancy. You will be expected to chip in for your food if any dropouts of the 8 originals are not fully reimbursed. Please PM me with the nights planned and I will forward my paypal addy. Only pre-paid/scheduled guests... no walk-ins please.
In planning is the meals and grocery list by Billy. Billy is a good cook but others are needed to help! Add to Billy's GREAT start for a list! Billy, do you want to go so far as a menu plan (simple one that rotates every few nights is fine)???
Some things that are not too expensive but can make great meals:
Dinner Stuff
White Rice/Brown Rice
Beans
Pasta (Ragu, some sausage and spaghetti is a quick meal!)
Thin Steaks (Very good yet cheap)
Whole Kernel Corn
Chicken Cutlets
Pork chops
Onions
Hamburgers
Franks
French Fries or Potatos or Mashed
Broccoli
Peas and Carrots
String Beans
Gravy
Breakfast Foods:
Eggs
Bacon
Sausage (beef or pork)
Pancakes
Bread for French Toast
Oatmeal
Syrup for above
Cereals (Special K, Corn Flakes, Raisin Bran, Cheerios, etc.)
English Muffins (Breakfast sandwiches)
Boil extra taters on tater nights for home fries in the AM?
Drinks:
Water
Sprite Zero
Coke/Pepsi Products
Coffee (LOTS!)
Juices (Prune for the geriatric crowd? ) Haha!
Hot Chocolate
Orange Juice
Apple Juice
Green Tea
Lipton Tea
Gatorade
Powerade
Some of the "ins and outs"
Please read this is you've never been on the Dragon. Great tips not only for the Dragon but many area roads! Tail of the Dragon at Deals Gap and Cherohala Skyway, Graham Co, NC
Earlzach and his Dad Harry will take the other but will be leaving before the second weekend. Vadim, Tony and Billy will be in the biggest room with the 3 twin beds. We can fit two roll-away beds as well. There is a lot of space in the garage to sleep too.
The county is a DRY county. If you intend to drink alcohol, bring in what you will be consuming as it is miles to the first available store to buy any. Warning, we will intervene if we think you have alcohol in your system and you intend to ride. We will not let someone be needlessly injured or worse! Why? Because we CARE!
We're all there to have fun. There will be small groups, pairs and even individuals that will be going in all directions daily. We're looking for at least one, maybe two full group rides if possible with one photo op for as many as can be there in a single given day. No one is going to dictate your vacation time or tell you when and where to ride. Eric has a few routes on his GPS that he'll share and others are welcome to do the same. If you don't have a GPS, check with the members and see the routes for the next day and pick one to tag along with or, just head out and explore!
Let's all go have fun and meet new friends!
