As of Thursday morning, it's saying 40% scattered thunderstorms by 9am Friday in both Nashville and Birmingham.. looks like we'll be leaving super early tomorrow. Ray - I'll look into the hotel situation.

When you have an idea what your timing is, call me. I'll meet you in Oneonta.

The couple of hotels an exit or two down from Barber look pretty crappy, so I got us a room at the Doubletree downtown by the college. Covered parking!

FYI - the Nashville team is unfortunately heading home on Saturday and not continuing on to Jackson. I assume others in the group are heading that way? Just a heads-up.

Cody,

The rain chance is 40% @ 9:00, 50% after until 1 or 2, then 70%. Sat AM is clear & high 50's. If you all want to do the Highway 25 ride Sat AM, we'll do it. Looks like you and me heading west. We should all be at the museum after 1:00 or so Fri afternoon.

so what time do you want Radam and me to meet you in LR? around noon? trying to figure out when to leave the house..

poboy · « **Reply #290 on:** April 15, 2011, 04:18:14 AM »

Just an FYI there is rain thunder and some lightning north of Huntsville already (6:15 AM) looks like I am out due to weather and sick kid. You guys have fun!

madmtnmotors · « **Reply #291 on:** April 15, 2011, 06:01:49 AM »

Man, I hope you guys miss the bad stuff. Looks like two waves of storms in your path. The first wave looks like some heavy rain at times but you can probably wait those out. I just hope you make Barbers before the second wave because you might be waiting a while if your going to wait for the second wave to pass (much more widespread heavy storms). Ride safe, and we'll be thinking about you guys today.

jtb · « **Reply #292 on:** April 15, 2011, 06:19:37 AM »

Have you guys left yet? If not, call me before you leave...205-243-4354.

Radam · « **Reply #293 on:** April 15, 2011, 06:31:26 AM »

Noonish in LR sounds good to me. We could all have lunch somewhere downtown.

OldSchool_IsCool · « **Reply #294 on:** April 15, 2011, 11:08:51 AM »

Just took a look at weather radar. WOW! Sure hope y'all got past this stuff!

Radam · « **Reply #295 on:** April 15, 2011, 11:37:25 AM »

9 people died in OK/AR from that storm. Look out for tornadoes!

yo2001 · « **Reply #296 on:** April 15, 2011, 04:13:37 PM »

So I hope you guys all made it through. Are you guys up for breakfast at Lanny's in the morning? I should be able to make that.

Good morning Yo. I talked to JTB (John) last night and we thought we were the only two meeting up this morning before heading for Jackson. The storm knocked a lot of guys out of making the Birmingham trek.

John is taking the guys from Tennessee out to Barbers this morning because they left their bikes there rather than riding through the storm to their rooms last night. Anyway, we are meeting at 8:30 AM at the

IHOP on Lakeshore in Birmingham
221 State Farm Parkway
Homewood, Alabama 35209-7170

I hope you can make it there for some breakfast!

yo2001 · « **Reply #298 on:** April 16, 2011, 04:58:18 AM »

You can't miss IHOP breakfast right? I'll be there.

Right on
