I was there by about 10:20 and could find no place to park, so ended up parking on some small gravel road south of the east-west southern road. The sheriff's guys directing traffic were just shaking their heads in disbelief.
My brother was there for his first time, and a couple of other friends rode with me. We had a good time, and didn't spend too much, but did find some good pieces.
