Here's a little more info:

From Jonathan Souza:
As before, everyone is welcome, not everyone is invited. Anyone who shows interest will get an invite but we will not automatically post the invite publicly. This way, the event stays a manageable size and does not become a ‘Dragon’ for the road – racer crowd. Further, the hotel is kind of, well, quaint and there are limited rooms. Conceivably, we could take over the whole thing.

The invite goes out in a week or two. I will send you the logistics as soon as they are ready.

So, has anyone gotten the invite yet? Made a reservation at Hotel Seville and have not received a confirmation. Called back and they resent-didn't get. Sent an e-mail requesting the confirmation and have not received a reply from that. How about you? :?:

I've read where a rock slide has closed Tail of the Dragon and it could be months before it reopens.

When are y'all planning to leave? And has anyone heard what lodging is still available? I haven't been keeping up with this but looks like we might be able to make it (fingers crossed).

I hear there is a 5k at the festival and there's an amazing mountain bike trail not too far away. Is anyone planning to enter the race or bike while there?
