The venue and staff in Flatwoods was just too good to pass up a round 2. It has been a while since I’ve had such a positive experience with interactions with a venue staff and management. It takes what can be a very stressful behind the scenes time and turns it into a completely enjoyable experience from start to finish. There were enough enjoyable roads in the general area to support a return as well. We are hoping the state of things allows for the on-site restaurant to be at full service and capacity this September, but only time will tell. I will be working on the website and social media updates this week. There will be an event on facebook, as well as advertised on the FJRIders.com Facebook group.
