This is a big year - our TENTH annual meet! Hope you can join us, even for only a day or two. Fontana has given us twice as many beds to fill. I am advertising on facebook this year to try to bump our attendee numbers back up.

This is taking place the weekend of September 8,9,10. Past attendees show up as early as Wednesday (9/6) and leave as late as Monday (9/11). Most people start showing up on Thurs. afternoon and leave Sundayish.

Fontana Dam, NC 28733

If you need help finding a room/cabin to reserve please message me, we have a special group discount with some rooms/cabins set aside. We have lodge rooms and cabins ranging from $115 per night up to $229 per night. Our group name is CRZ Forum to get access to our cabins, before they are released back to the public.

Let’s get some new faces out there! It’s always fun to get together with some like minded CRZ fans

It’s a fun road trip. I’ve been attending from NY since the second meet. It’s 800 miles (13 hours) one direction, but so worth it!

Wanted to share this here as well: I’m leading an event

Mid-TN CRZ meet and cruise May 20th. Meet at 9:30am @ Adventure Science Center. Back roads, Natchez Trace, more back roads. Will be finished around 2-3pm. With lunch at Loveless Cafe. Video, drone, GoPro and photo people will be set up along route. Make sure those Zs are clean! More info in the Facebook group Honda CRZ in USA under events tab. This route is best compared to Cherohola Skyway with switchbacks, sweeping curves and beautiful scenery
Only myself and 2 other Zs confirmed. Would love to have 8+. Im also planning a fall run in October, no dates yet.
Let me know if further questions! Please come all that can support. Thanks!

I've been up at the Tail quite a few times. It's only 3 hours from me. I may go up to see what everyone is riding.

I'll be there in spirit! My boys and I are going to stay at a resort in Tennessee the following week. I'll be taking the Z for the 14 hour commute, but I wish I could do it twice to come see y'all!

Sure thing.

we only have a month left to reserve the cabins and lodge rooms that Fontana Village set aside for us. Mid June they get released back to the public for reserving, and they will get snatched up

Definitely interested in attending this year's meet. I've never done a 11 hour drive let alone a solo trip so I've gotta put in some major planning for this but it would be worth it! Good to know about the reservations deadline.

The first year my husband and I went (2014), from NY to TN/NC we did it in one shot. Left at 6pm and got there at 10am (stops, breaks along the way). By the time we got there we had to sleep until the evening and we missed out on some group events. That trip was brutal, and I would not recommend that.

Now what we do is break it up. We go from NY to a favorite hotel in Cleveland OH (8 hours), and then finish the last 4-5 hours the next day after we meet up with other northerners at a specific Denny’s restaurant in KY.

your profile says you're just outside chicago. I would recommend breaking the trip into chicago-cincy or indy and then onto fontana.

Update: the official date that the cabins and rooms set aside for us go up-for-grabs to the public is JUNE 8TH

Private message me if you need help reserving or have questions. Even if it says I haven’t been active for a time, I will see any messages come through my personal email

Planning to come so count me in! Excited to be there. I'll be 8th-11th if I can finagle my way through the work schedule to use as little vacation time as possible.
