My notes from the trip.....
+ Everyone having internet access (robbinsvile) made life easy to gather the group and share plans or status. Also just general communication.
+ walkie talkies are fun.
+ high power walkie talkies last 5-7 hrs based on use.
+ gas stations 15secs away from hotel made life easier.
+ The Hub ribs were not great this year.
+ killboy ditched us
+ watching mama drive brought me joy
+ learned about Kudzu
+ jason driving an accord can make sport bikers pull over
+ learned about the special bond of someone and their cat
+ Fri/Sat at the dragon sucks (10a-4p)
+ seeing a mama bear and 2 cubs 20 ft off the blue ridge parkway was cool.
+ morning runs are still the best

Follow up to yours.

* I did like staying in Robbinsville. Would do that again but would be cool if one person would have had a cabin so we could grill/cook out
* The "High Power" 36-mile walkie talkies were not worth it
* The ribs were alright but definitely better last year
* Also learned about Kudzu and ways to make money on it (@SpartanML )

For those want to know what Kudzu is -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kudzu

seeing a bear cross the road behind @mattsbobo and in front of your car is less cool
Jason can make any car fast
Brakes can get hot enough to warp center caps so they fall out at random (see above)
