Atlanta Area

[2wTraveler]

Are there any Atlanta area rider on the board. I just moved from the Conyers area to Villa Rica and spend most of my free time in the N. GA mountains. Anyone want to get an Atlanta area group going?

[UPSMAN]

Nobody want to ride with you, 500 miles is a short day for you.

[2wTraveler]

Gosh..don't blow my cover UPS man. If you tell them that, then nobody will want to ride with me...

[Grizz]

  You just moved out of my area, Im in McDonough. I just got back from a ride to Connecticut. I am going to drop the bike off for a little dyno tuning in a day or two, give me a shout in about a week.

[chromekid01]

I am down for a ride almost any weekend so long as i have some notice...its hard finding other riders that have an exploritory nature most just want to race around.

I live in Temple,Ga so i am close for sure.

[2wTraveler]

Sounds good, I just moved to the West side and keep hearing about the roads over in Alabama. Are you familiar with them? I will be heading out there to check them out soon enough.

[frayne]

From Chattanooga here, if you're up this way give me a shout out.  I ride mostly during the week though but not adversed to a weekend run either.

[cultureslayer]

I should be in Atlanta at some point, need to get some more ink.

[Clint64]

I live in North Atlanta.  Up for a ride most any weekend, just let me know.

I have found a few cool roads for sure, not quite sure if they were AL or GA but they were off the beaten path and very neat...I have also ridded Cheaha Mnt very unimpressed.

PM me contact info and we'll get out for a ride.

There are three of us in Newnan.  Sign Guy, ibppjr (I think?).  I have a 5 month old, sign Guy has a one month old, but IBP has a 16 year old and time.  Plus his IBA number is 33 so I think he could hang with you on some high mileage trips.  He's in Alaska until the middle of next week if I recall.

[2wTraveler]

Ok, who is in for a ride on Sunday? Don't really care where to, just somewhere twisty. Anyone who is interested post up and we can determine a meeting spot from there.

There is a pretty decent size ride going on saturday N. GA to Telico plains and back lots of twisty...
hit me up if you wanna go and we can ride up to the meet together.

[2wTraveler]

Gotta work on Saturday, but have all day Sunday open to ride. Tellico sounds like a fun ride. I haven't been on Cherohala skyway this year yet.

[UPSMAN]

I would like to join you on Sunday but Im going to a friends funeral, Maybe next time.

JW i would like to explore the NE Alabama area a bit more since i am so close..

[Sign Guy]

You guys get any rides together please keep me in mind. I did about 225 miles today from Newnan over to Talladega Skyway and back. If I would have had more advance notice of going I would have posted to this thread. My schedule is erratic at best but fluid enough that I'll mount up any time I can to go with a sane group.

I take a lot of day-trips to the mountains of northern GA with my wife. Earlier this year, I think we were heading up there about twice a month. We'll actually be in the area, starting Oct 4th, for the "Ducks Fly South" rally being held by US Desmo in Hiawassee.

I will also be trying to get to the Ducs fly south, hopefully my Multistrada will be fixed by then.

I'll be the fat guy on a black Multistrada wearing a Kawaski leather...LOL unless my Olympia jacket comes in first.

[ibppjr]

No DFS for me...my ST is at ATD with the main bearings out.

I know the fealing my Valve guide self destructed and took the horizontal head and everything it with it.
But i am confident that my Multistrada should be ready by DFS in october.

I think I'll be on my yellow 748 with yellow leathers and my wife will be on her red/black R1 with blue/white leathers.

That's gotta hurt.  I thought the guides wouldn't lead to that kind of a problem when they started getting bad

A few of us old guys are meeting at the Waffle House at Clairmont and 85 about 10 this morning and headed for the loop and TWO for lunch. Bunch of old farts on slow ass Connies, prolly flower sniffin along the way and stopping every 5 miles to piss cause everyone knows us old farts have prostate problems. TWO instead of Dales because we like to air it out and hit the rockin chairs. Should be a red, a blue, and maybe a Barnie bike and maybe some others. Riding our own pace. Se ya there. We'll prolly stop at the top of 400 for gas, although with 7 1/2 gallons we can pretty much ride all day without needin any. We should hit the end of 400 between 10:30 and 11.

[MotoCommuter]

James,

Don't let Jack fool ya, he thinks his connie is a sport bike. The only flower sniffin I've seen him do is when he is dragin his pegs and the flowers are hittin his helmet.

I was flying over Alabama the other day and saw the Skyway winding around...it looked awesome from the plane.  I would imagine that would be a great place to ride during the fall and winter.

My Ducati is in the shop (going on a month now) having the main bearings replaced.  It should be out in another week or so and I'll be ready to go check it out.
