Me and the copilot are 60 somethings. Beats the alternative but some mornings not by much. I still like the young folks (40 & 50 somethings) and the kids (20 and 30 somethings) as long as they are well behaved and don't act up too much.

The only "old " men on the Dragon are driving Pick ups and towing a bass boat.

There are no "old" men at the Dragon driving a Crossfire.

When I'm in my Crossfire, I feel 18. And drive like a teenager as well.

But, for Jane Bridges, don't worry. I'll stay inside the yellow lines.

We all should.

Dave, Barb.....

I spoke with the staff at the Fontana Lodge today and they said only an inch of snow fell there.
I bet the Dragon is slippery right now though.
Just one month away tomorrow .....
50+ Crossfires will be present for a huge weekend GTG and driving event !!

A lot of us will be bringing two way radios.
We will split into groups of about 10 cars each and drive about 10 minutes apart from each other using different frequencies.
It works pretty well as I have done this twice now.
It's gonna be an experience for those who have not done this before and for the rest well ya all know the good times we have.

That would put me leaving out of the north Jacksonville area at about 6 am. All are welcome if you are going that way.
Dan we can meet at the Waffel house right off I-26 exit #28.Time looks good to me.Then we can leave and pick up others in NC .If any of the locals here want to meet us at Waffel house please do so, the more crossfires the better.If anyone needs my cell please PM me.I hope this is ok with everyone.We still need to set a plan for NC to meet.Any place will be good for us and I am sure it will be ok with Dan and his group.
