so far its Brandon, Ray, Me, and two guys you havent met. Both new guys are our most experienced so no worries there.

Edit:
I hesitate to do the meet thing, you have two types of riders in the world, those who spend time learning to ride better and better every day, and those who spend all their time decking out the bike. I have seen 5 crashes this year, and I do not have the will to see more "bike decker-outers" crash and ruin the day.

lol sean will go....i will make his ass and ill try my hardest to meet you guys down there and i hear you on the 2 types of riders most of these guys seem like pretty good riders but i guess we will only find out one way

At the Dragon the 250 can dominate. Those things are a cornering machine. I've got an 08 and when you take it to the track you just keep it pinned in the corners.

I'm down for the Dragon next year. I can take whatever vacation I want, so whatever dates will work for me. Hell, it's a whole year from now to plan. Think we can get a group rate at one of the hotels?

I checked at the place I stayed (Fontana Village) for group rates,
They do have em but it depends on how many & what time of year.

That place is really nice, Like some kinda resort, But a little rich for my blood.
They wanted $130.00 a night,(for there cheapest room) With my military discount & filtering with the attendant
I got it for $89.00 bucks, Still with tax I got back $2 & change from two Benjamin's.

I still like the store best, The owners close up shop @ 7m,
Its a real laid back party atmosphere with nobody to bother ya.
Your in the middle of nowhere with no one around for miles. Just you & a bunch of crazy biker riders.
I cant think of a more fun place.
(well maybe if I were the owner of my very own strip club.)LOL
