All the routes I've worked on presume Fontana as home base. It is definitely possible to depart Fontana on Wed AM, run the Dragon south to north, and make it to BG by early afternoon. It's also possible to add the Devil's Triangle or other scenic routes and still make BG in time for pizza. Looks like a win-win as far as I'm concerned.

Robert, we need to go ahead and block rooms starting Sunday (Mother's Day) and checking out on Wed AM. FWIW, many participants from last year indicated they really liked the idea of staying at Fontana and since it's very centrally located to all the "good" roads, it seems like the logical thing to do. Depending on how many participants we have we can either opt for a buffet dinner on Tue nite (similar to last year) or do something different. Lots of options.

I would say to subscribe to this thread but I think notifications are not working at the moment, so please check this thread frequently for updates and definitely let us know of your interest, especially if you are definitely planning on attending MR4.

George, I was going to send you and Hutch an Email on Monday. I contacted Beth with Fontana Dam a week ago, With Hutch permission, I am going to create one block of rooms as we will get a better price.
