"Or do we do this first thing on Day 2? and just make this a longer day?"
Im open to whatever. I will be on TKC80s Im guessing that should be knobbie enough.
My plan is to be staying in Dublin on the 26th which is a little less than an hour and half from Damascas.
Ill try to meet up when ever it suites the group.

After reading some of the thread in last days I might be wrong about something. is day 1 the 26th or the 27th? At any rate, Im open to whatever. At the beginning of the day to do the single track trail would be my vote but Ill do it at the end of the day, which ever day that is. Is the single track trail, Iron Mountain Trail?

Im leaving in the morning on Tuesday the 27th.
Yes, the single track is the Iron Mt Trail.
Pat and I are going to try and do the single track at the end of Day 1 after we ride down to Marion/Damascus.

Either or. I have to pass Cross Junction on my way to I-81 if that's how we're burning down to Damascus. I typically fuel up at the Shell for the Fuel Rewards points anyways. Judging by how close the route comes to our neck of the woods, it seems like a great ending place for those living a bit further East if they wanted to trailer over to us or simply gather here and travel down as a group.

I have the GPS route from the MADBR website but it doesn't show much detail as far as the options. Do you guys know where a GPS file is that shows these details?

what details are you looking for? I imported the tracks to Base Camp and see the options
