Thursday - Will have lead rides or "Go Your Own Way". Thursday night will be the "The Confederate Night Run". There is a gravesite along the Dragon that not many people know about.

Iron Horse caters to motorcyclists. There is a Pavilion that is open 24/7 for us to eat, rest, watch movies, play pool, shoot darts, check email, and of course socialize. There is also a fire ring by the creek for us to sit around the fire and tell riding stories.
