2nd Mid-PA Mini-Dragon Meet

Same as last time
Meet up will be at Buddy's Log Cabin Family Restaurant, (97 Tremont Rd, Pine Grove, PA 17963) around 10am for brunch.
There is a gas station a few miles north of Buddy's on 125

EDIT:July 30th 2016 plenty of time to save the date, finish your rebuilds, polish your intake tubes, or what have you.

Then drive the mini-dragon on this path(or one close to it)

(replace xxx with www)


about route 125(drive at your own limits)
Rt 125 is equal parts scenic and challenging. Coming down the mountain on the Shamokin side there are some serious downhill hairpins that you need to pay attention to, so stay within your limits and pay attention to the road! On a nice day there may be some amount of sport bike traffic, so watch out for our two wheeled friends and be aware that they will be looking to pass (no matter how quick you may be going :-)). Bottom line, pay attention to the road and your surroundings and everyone will have a great day!
last times turn out

Interesting. Added to my calendar. I'll spread the word to my MAZDA-phile friends (Miatas, mostly).

Shell said he wants to sell or he 'is' selling but it's difficult.

It's sad that you took the route you did honestly. So many better turns and views. The whip turn coming up to Bubba's (the white bar you passed) has claimed a few cars however.

Mine.should be running the next time this happens. I'll take ya's on a few detours.
