As far as do's and don'ts and braking and such.

Let your engine do the work, you shouldn't rely on your brakes to do all the work. I barely used mine.

DJ, engine braking with a rotary isn't the most efficient means of slowing down.

Brakes? what the heck are those. They didn't put them on cars (or trucks) back in the 70's, my moto is just never leave 2nd gear.

Nantahala Village has food.

They have a new management at the restaurant and they are offering $15 a person dinners. I've asked them what that will include and they haven't told me what..

That price is only good if you make a reservation though. Which isn't really an issue.

Thank god for the new management. Last year it took quite some time to get our check at dinner.

I haven't really had a problem with wait times at Thirteen Moons, although it doesn't really surprise me - I mean, we're basically swamping the system. Always had good food there, too.

Don't get me wrong, the food has always been excellent. But last year we waited for our check for something like 45 minutes, and nobody got a refill on their drinks. We were there for a total of 2 hours, it was crazy.
