At 7:30 am most people are still hanging out in their beds

Oh yeah, it seems like the Dragon will be without traffic that early

http://i13.tinypic.com/4trpoio.jpg


Oh no, after the half of the Dragon with no traffic, this is what I saw. Booo

http://i12.tinypic.com/4yrdahy.jpg


At the great Overlook spot there are a few early MINI folks

http://i14.tinypic.com/5yjvh2w.jpg


Lots of British motorbikes (mostly Triumph) are spending time at the Dragon too

http://i11.tinypic.com/4yhc8ye.jpg


It seems like I am a bit late for the the big MINI parade

http://i11.tinypic.com/543qdcn.jpg


Looks like this little dog is indeed ready for the MINI parade

http://i11.tinypic.com/4r0tjqt.jpg


And we are off

As other MINIs are coming back, we know that we are reaching the end of the run

http://i18.tinypic.com/63w4974.jpg


The parking lot on the TN side of the Dragon is quite busy

http://i19.tinypic.com/4rcu5w4.jpg


Some folks turned around immediately and others are just hanging out.
