Cool, yeah you can still put it on, you just cant get it all that tight or the top will come up, its cracked almost all the way around the top.

I got a new toy that I'll be using to video the B3R this weekend. I
posted a thread about it in the video section.

Heres my first video. I need to work on the conversion from the AVI format
to whatever gets the best quality and size for the web. Advice on this
is welcomed. The AVI is much better than the version that ended up on flickr.

I had planned on leaving Smyrna, TN Friday afternoon to head toward NC but I see the camping isn't till Sat. I could caravan with Holly's group but that is 230 miles out of the way. What are my lodging options near the area so I'm not in any rush Saturday morning to be at the right place? Lookin forward to this weekend!

almost... but Zach, I can have a bed or couch for you to sleep on friday night if you need it... my general statement applies.. its not a fancy hotel, no maid service... but its a free roof over your head... Jamin and Bryan will be here too... oh, and u can see all the car parts i have all over the place...

I'll bring my power inverter.

ROTORX7Holly · 10-21-2010, 01:50 PM

Tray, so where is the spot that the Atlanta caravan is going to meet up with everyone in Brevard, NC, for lunch?

lt1_fd3s · 10-21-2010, 02:02 PM

Let's keep this simple...

Wal-Mart parking lot (lower part, near Taco Bell and the Bank)
177 Forest Gate Dr
Brevard, NC 28712

Wal-Mart is at the intersection of NC 280, US 64, NC 276...

My thoughts on lunch: do lunch in Brevard. Right near the Bottom of HWY 276 are several places to eat, some fast food, some sit down... I was thinking that we dont all have to eat at the same place, all the places I mentioned are almost within sight of one another (Except for the two asian places...) and we can meet back up at a time after everyone eats if some do split off...

Fast Food:
Taco Bell
Subway
Food Lion Deli
(maybe a few others in the shopping area...)

Sit down:
Twin Dragons - Asian Buffet
Mexican Place
Sea food place (across from Mexican)
Pizza Hut
Fuji Yamas - Asian sit down, not buffet

Thanks TeeeeRay!

I was told that last weekend was peak... so hopefully it will be good this weekend. i know i've not see as many leaves on the ground in the past two weeks as i did the two weeks prior to last years event...

ROTORX7Holly · 10-24-2010, 08:11 PM

I think all had a great time at B3R this year. The Atlanta caravan had a 1st, 2nd & 3rd gen, and two RX-8s drive up to Brevard and join all the others that drove from the start at Asheville. The scenery was beautiful, with lots of fall foliage remaining. It wasn't too cold this year, although others may not agree, I was prepared. We had a great group of 18 rotorheads this year, with 13 rotaries running the Blue Ridge Parkway and camping at Cherokee.
3 - 1st gens (Thomas, Tim, Carlos & Jan)
4 - 2nd gens (Bryan, Kristy, Zach, Jamin)
3 - 3rd gens (Tray, Jeremy, Joel & wife)
3 - RX8s (Alan, Holly, Kevin & Lindsay)
Sorry, if I spelled your names incorrectly.

Thanks Tray... Good Times. And thanks to your WNCRides friend, Jonathan for getting all the food and supplies for the campfire dinner. Great Job!

Can't wait to see the videos and pics.

Holly
