Well, kind of. I've at least got the go ahead to pack people in! We'll be at Rocky Road Campground in Loudon, just 2 miles north of the main entrance to NHMS. It's primitive as fuck and well past it's glory days, but that's what we like about it. There's plenty of camping spots, a few spots with electricity and water and even some with just electricity OR water. If bringing a camper, you can fill up out front when you get there and there's no restrictions on running a generator - run 'em 24/7 if you'd like. Dump station is out front. There's portable shitters all over the place, plus a "regular" shithouse and showers out front. Most sites have a firepit ready to go too.
We'll be there Thursday, the 6th until Sunday, the 9th (we'll be attending the races Fri thru Sunday) and again Thursday, the 13th until Sunday, the 16th. We'll also be up there Friday, the 21st until Sunday, the 23rd for the NASCAR crowd - if nothing else, NASCAR weekend is worth it just for the partying and the fly-over the Air Force does before the race. They fly right over the campground and it's absolutely awe inspiring!
I'm guessing there'll be a medium size crowd the first weekend of Bike Week with things picking up by Wed/Thu. Father's Day weekend was a total blast last year and we met a ton of really cool peeps from all over the country as well as from Canada. NASCAR weekend is usually just insane.
He usually charges $25 per person per night, but I think he drops that down to $20 for Bike Week. No real need to call unless you have specific questions you'd like to have him answer. He doesn't really reserve spots - just how up, sign in, sign the waiver, pay up, buy a Rocky Road shirt and listen to his speech explaining things and you're good to go.
The three rules he has posted are: No fireworks, no attitudes, no littering. There's no "quiet time" and there's really no real limitation on noise. Fuck, even *I* have never been asked to quiet down, and that says A LOT. Those that know, know...
There's plenty of stores around within a few miles and he usually has plenty of ice & firewood for sale. And if the need arises he probably has any tools any of us could possibly need if a situation presents itself.
While WE won't be hiring any live bands, it's not outta the realm of possibilities that SOMEONE will show up that will be more than happy to play a few live tunes. It's happened. If we can pack 'em in this year, we're gonna really look into expanding this and try to revive Stonnerstock to it's previous glory.
I'll try to answer any other questions if ya got 'em.
So far, I know Ed (PinHead) is gonna be joining us the 13th - the 16th. Let me know who else wants to help kick this shit off.
