There is a tradition for the event that all attendees should post a list of things you learned. Here's my short list.

10-OCR has a story for everything.
9-DRDubb doesn't know how to ring the dinner bell.
8-Mo will always remember your name.
7-Never believe the weather forecast.
6-Rain will not slow down an NC
5-There is good BBQ in Cashiers.
4-The purpose of a motorcycle trailer is to carry the Taj Mahal.
3-Unmilked cows are loud at 6 A.M.
2-There is a giant spider in shower stall #3.
1-Be careful washing dishes with dubb, he may stab you.

1) The roads in western North Carolina are nearly always perfectly paved.
2) The Blue Ridge Parkway is still my favorite road.
3) Kickstand Lodge is THE place to stay.
4) Bullfrogs and cattle sound almost alike.
5) Bath towels come in all sorts of colors.
6) Whoda thunk it? A rabbit rings the dinner bell.
7) OCR and Nofear2trek will show up anywhere at anytime.
8) You meet the nicest people on an NC700.

Added:
9) BLTs are a gourmet meal when done Mo style.

1. Liberals and conservatives can have a conversation and never talk politics
2. When you pull in, you are checked in
3. There is new pavement somewhere in the world (wayah road)
4. A dozen guys can go eat at the same time at the same place and NOT have to wait hours for your food.
5. Apparently, someone from southern Indiana has a strange (Mo's words funny accent) accent-really, this from someone living in North Carolina...
6. You don't have to wear black or chaps to be able to ride a motorcycle :)
7. You can do a really good paint job with a rattle can...

Mo can tell who you are by just your last name
Forum members are really nice people
You don't need a GPS on the BRP nor a sun visor in a tunnel
ujm forum members get along with this group
some ujm VFR riders think they are dualsports riders
you don't need freeze dried meal crap nor ramen at KSL
there's fish in the creek, bull frogs in the pond and turtles that visit you at dawn
NCX steams up a sauna when it rains in cold weather

everyone has a great time at KSL.
 
When at the Dragon avoid:

8. Fake Auxiliary Fuses.
7. Rubber Rolling Off Tires.
6. Slow moving BMW Motorcycles.
5. Ghost Dirt Roads.
4. Harley Organized Rides.
3. Clouds on the Roadway.
2. Nissan 370Z Coupes.
1. Ladies Offering You Potato Salad.
 
10.) No restaurant on 64 between Highlands and Cashiers serves Coke products.

9.) When you forget your glasses back at the lunch restaurant, a friend you just met will offer to ride 120 miles round trip with you to get them.

8.) Mo charges $195.00 a night for a cabin when you forget the $45 in cash to pay for it. (just kidding, I mailed a check to Mo today).

7.) Bringing a heated jacket liner controller doesn't keep you warm up on the Cherohala when the jacket liner it controls is back at KSL.

6.) Mo & Bobby's business model restores your faith in the For Profit business sector (see #8 above).

5.) 12 miles of a climbing muddy road on street tires isn't that big of a deal.

4.) 48.6 mighty horsepower does not ever require Rain Mode or even Mud Mode (see #5).

3.) The 100 MPH Curve on TN 360 is rightly called The 89 MPH Curve when taken on a NC700X. (see #3).

2.) Bridgestone T30 Evos are great rain tires.

1.) I don't need an Africa Twin for the kind of riding that makes me happy.
 
Are some people forgetting one thing they learned? Like, what are those poles for up on top of the Cherohala Skyway?

Having never been to KSL, what I learned from this (my only learning) is that next time I am in the area I should try it instead of my automatic choice of Ironhorse.
