I'm coming again this year (and will keep on coming as long as I can get up the hill in front of the MAZOC cabin). Won't be in the caravan. Arriving Wed evening. Sign me up as a volunteer for whenever and wherever you need. XXL if you have a leftover shirt but don't sweat it if I'm too late to get one. Look forward to seeing you all. Safe travels.

ride within your limits, and whatever you do, dont cross the double yellow line (people/photographers) are watching, and you will get called out.. (im no vet, this is my 2nd time going).

i read on a mustang forum that sometimes its impossible not to cross over the double yellow i.e. in some corners you either cross the double yellow or bend a rim, they also said to listen for motorcycles as they will get pissed off if you cross the double yellow and will turn around/chase you down and punch off your side mirrors.....

Seriously, though, it is impossible to avoid crossing the double yellow only if you are driving beyond your limits. I would advise treating the double yellow as you would the embankment you will sometimes have on your right: if you cross the line, something bad will happen. As long as you drive within your limits and pull off for faster vehicles when possible, nobody will have a problem with your driving. The general attitude is that everyone (regardless of vehicle) is there to have fun, and they don't want some silly confrontation getting in the way of that. |

Indeed. There are a few sections where it is certainly tempting to cross the double yellow to maximize speed -- but at that point you are out of control. It's a public road, not a race track, and you will be shamed (possibly maimed) if you do stupid stuff.

We usually have them for communicating while at the resort. They come in handy on the cruises and the caravans from and to home. You do Not want them as a distraction while on the curvy mountain roads there.

VERY useful. As Zstig points out, you don't want the distraction while driving the Dragon, but radios are handy. There is virtually no phone service at Fontana, which means radios are the best way to communicate while on campus. Also, if you decide to go somewhere with a group, radios are the easiest way to stay in contact. You can buy a set for not too much, or see if anyone has a spare to share.
