Curtis, I was planning on bringing the food thing up good timing...What's the consensus? Do we make camp then ride into SC for dinner then make our own Breakfast before the single track? Or do we want to do a group dinner? Looking forward to next weekend. ~Hugh On Saturday, August 17, 2013

We're getting in pretty early Fri, so might be worth it to ride back into town for group dinner when everyone arrives? Easy camp breakfast, ride, then second breakfast at the pier restaurant would be my vote. Sorta' iconic, and pretty reasonable in price quality for that sort of a place. On
