Hey guys, if anyone is interested, the Sunday after the C3 event, there is going to be a G3 event at Ghost Town, open to anyone. Here is the flyer and it should be a great time. Hope you don't mind if I post this, but I know alot of people were not going to the beach on Sunday, so this is the perfect alternative. I have worked with the park to make this pretty cool even tho Cliffhanger is not open. Check it out!

Sounds like a plan.

I especially like the thought of being able to climb down, or is it up, the lift? :lol:

We should be able to do this trip.

I'm in for this too, sounds fun.

So, I take it the plan is to do this instead of the family kingdom? If so i'll remove that from announcements.

Thanks for posting this Tom.
haha

Anywho, I know Alan has a place to stay, but if anyone else is planning on staying somewhere up there Sunday night (I'm just driving back to my parents house near Charlotte), be aware that hotels in and around Maggie Valley are either booked up or overpriced as it is REDNECK RALLY that weekend. awesomefied

Wonderful.

I wonder if traffic is going to be a nightmare?

I'm just going to plan on going to GTITS and driving back home. I really don't care to do Santa's Land as I already went to that park when I was...oh...3? I dont' count powered coasters, so I could care less about their coaster.

We got a hotel at the Comfort Inn for $99 a night for Saturday night after Carowinds. It's real nice and has free breakfast and wireless etc.

It's just a motorcycle thing, so traffic should be fine. We have been to GT about 4 times this year during those bike weekends and it's all good...unlike Myrtle Beach bike events.

There are a ton of hotels in Maggie Valley but if you go online to the Comfort Inn, when you make a reservation, choose "internet rate" and it gives you like a $20 lower rate. This place is about half a mile from Ghost Town.

An event that is a mere 34 miles from my house. This would be awsome but I will be 1200 miles away in Texas that weekend.

Hope you have a great turn out Tommy.

^ Well that's good to know. If you had planned on coming, the place would have fallen off the side of the mountain for sure. :lol: :wink:
