On to the National!

"On to the National!" is an overnight event for some that are going to the National in Flatwoods WV, want a place to stop Saturday night, and spend some fun time with other COGgers.

Our house is ~350 miles from Flatwoods, between 5 and 7 hours of riding, depending on... well you know what.

We will be serving dinner on Saturday and breakfast Sunday morning.  We can accommodate up to 15 people (bathroom and septic system limited).
We do have a guest bedroom, if a couple is interested, let me know directly so we can "reserve it" for you. We have couches and a sofabed that can sleep 3 or 4 others, and enough floorspace in the house to fit about 6-9 sleeping bags.  Our back yard is flat and our neighborhood is the definition of quiet and safe, with awesome neighbors, so pitching your tent out back is also fine.  We only have one shower, so opportunity will be very limited; please don't count on being able to take one.

While we will keep cleanup as simple as possible, we will need, and expect, help cleaning up so Irene and I can also hit the road early - we will be locking up the house and leaving at 8:30 AM.  The route we plan to take is below, and we will be happy to have others ride with us; our riding style is not scraping pegs, but not getting passed very often.  Our plan is to stop for lunch near the OH/WV state line, possibly meet other COGgers there, and make the last part to Flatwoods.
