Default Third Annual, "Box the Dragon", 2012

After contacting Adam about leading the effort again, he said that it didn't look good. So 1DERBOX, suggested we put it out and see how many are interested in doing it anyway. It has always been the first weekend in August. This is a weekend of getting together and cruising the "Tail of the Dragon", between Tn. and N.C. Usually photo shoots at Fontana Dam, and on other end by the river. Let us know what you think.

Now looking at 8, possibly 9 boxes. First weekend in August. Some are looking to stay at Fontana Resort at campground or cabins. Others are looking to stay at area motels. Killjoy is playing with video this year. Wonder how that would turn out. Whole herd of boxes.

Interest continues to grow. Hope to see those who desire to come have a try at the Tail of the Dragon, on August 3-5. Several of us will be staying at the Tuskeegee Motel. Rooms are plain, but clean and cheap. Hope to see you all there.

Default Third Annual, "Box the Dragon"

Just 2 weeks to go. What do you think of this as a giveaway. Not an artist, just trying to think of something special. 1st Gen XB.

We had a blast. Went across the Dragon Friday. Twice Saturday, Even went across the Parkway to Townsend and back, then again Sunday. Had my camcorder looking through windshield at the others. Def need to play with cam more. Video was OK but not great. Law enforcement was out as usual, so we had to behave ourselves. But the 1st and 2nd gen box's do handle well. First trip in my 2nd gen. Thanks to all who came. Those of you who didn't, missed out on the fun. Congratulations to Neil for winning the Box the Dragon underhood panel. I also handed out chrome Dragons to everyone to put on their cars. Deb handed out some cool dogtags with Dragons on them and Russ gave away some cool XB toys that I havent seen before. Eric had some cool 2012 Dragon decals for us as well. And Neil and Adam did great work on the awsome shirts. Now to plan for BITS.

Dang, hopefully things will change by then so you can come. Don't want to miss out on The Creeper.

Sure wish I had seen this sooner! I would have made the trip. I live just outside the capital of NC and I own two XB's. I should have joined the forum sooner too! Hopefully next year!
