The best place to camp is off of
HWY38 about 5.5-6 miles outside of Harlan.

It's on the right going towards Evarts.
Big field and its only 3 miles or so to Trail Head

I've got a campsite next to the convention center.

How do we know where to meet to ride and for dinner, etc ?

route

I was there this past weekend. The better route will be 25E off I-81 4 miles north of the I-40 junction. Run 25E to hwy 119, then 119 straight to Harlan. If you run 421 be prepared for a lot of curves and a lot of hard pulling before you get to Ky.

[LARRY SMITH]

Time

The trip took around 5 hrs to Gastonia, including serveral stops, luch at Wendy's, fuel stop, Flying J to dump holding tanks. I think the distance was around 250 for me.
