it was at this location:
http://www.lfsc.com/
if you're a Griot's customer you probably got invited via email; if not,
you can register here:

they were also accepting walk-ins so it's not members only or anything
like that. my wife and son also tagged along.

He's got the personalized plate and the CMMC sticker on the driverside window. Ask him about the sport bike driver he gave a ride to on the Dragon
