I personally know of two assaults on contesters, one requiring medical
attention, within the immediate area around the CP last year. My last trip
to Dayton in 2018 I was with the K9PG group dining at a great BBQ place
south of the CP and it was just starting to get 'sketchy' then. (we never
did find a good place that sold milk shakes afterwards) Stay in groups and
be aware of your surroundings.

I believe in sharing the road with other drivers. They can
have the part behind me.
