So after the rally i started thinking about getting a crew together to go to the GAP in about a month or so. I was just thinking it would probably consist of the locals to the area but everyone is more than welcome to come. I was just thinking of a 2 day 1 night stay. If anyone is interested just send me a PM. I have about 4-5 buddies here in Chattown that want to go so it could turn into a good trip.

Thats cause Marines are crazy as hell, and Soldiers have common sense to know when to just sit back and relax.

Alright so this looks like the plan. Monday, July 26th leave for the gap around 5-6pm. Arrive there around 9pm due to the detour because of the rock slide(unless its cleaned up). Reserve a place in advance at DGMR for as many that plan on staying that night. I'm all for sharing an apartment and splitting the cost to make the room payment cheap. Anyways stay that night drink some or what not and then get up and ride the GAP and surrounding areas all day then head home. If that plan sounds good to yall let me know cause thats what im thinking would be the easiest.

As of now i have 2-3 buddies that might join me. LMK if your going 100% that way we can talk about sharing an Apartment. Im looking forward to seeing a few of yall again.

Also just read this on FB

Deals Gap Motorcycle Resort Hey Gang we got word that as of 23 Feb 2011 no more commercial trucks over 30 feet will be allowed on US 129 starting at the Swain county line. Signs will be going up in NC and we hope TN this fall. We are getting there, lets hope TN also adopts a similar rule.
Monday at 9:10am

Mine does...self employed but I still make my money during the week. I will say that your plan is good as far as avoiding the crowds go. I'm in Greenville, NC so it's about 7 hours one way. Hmmm, well if anyone is interested, and not to "take over'' your trip, but if anyone would like to put together an entire weekend at the Gap including Mon and Tues, I'm up for it. Say show up on Fri or Sat pm, stay 4 nights at DMGR and go home on Tues.

Lol by all means go ahead and jack my trip lol.

Actually i dont care its all up to yall what days im just putting up the days that work best for me and my crew here. I would love to stay the whole weekend but im going to the beach about a week or 2 after the GAP so i cant spend a lot. hence the short trip.
