Okay, I just bought my tickets, camping in Lot C, no victory lap though!

Trav-i · « **Reply #26 on:** August 20, 2011, 04:02:52 PM »

Chris and I got our tickets last night. Tent camping in lot C and a parade lap on Saturday! Also got my tank back today too. First coast of tank liner drying as I type, second coat to follow tomorrow, and then I'll be back on the road! Might take Milligan's new Gold Wing out this week.

Hey Bill, is your wife still thinking about driving over with us?

Bluto · « **Reply #27 on:** August 21, 2011, 06:16:42 AM »

Hi guys

Wife is questionable. If I had to guess Id go with probably not.

Looks like I better jump back on and do the parade lap thing.

Are we riding over Thursday? Works for me but, I think Vern might need us to call in sick for him.
Hey Vern...........

You good for Thursday?

bluezboy · « **Reply #28 on:** August 21, 2011, 06:25:22 AM »

No I can't ride over until Friday since it's a 4 day school week at that time and they are real picky about us being there right before a school break, I have to keep my meager job!

Trav-i · « **Reply #29 on:** August 21, 2011, 12:07:04 PM »

Guess I need to get started on a rack for the F! Thursday still works for Chris and I. Vern we'll figure something out for ya!

Bluto · « **Reply #30 on:** August 21, 2011, 02:46:17 PM »

I'm good for Thursday through Sunday. I'll get me a Sat. parade lap.

Vern............maybe we can get up Friday morning and come meet you.....then ride back in together.

Still hoping to hear from some other Atlanta guys

Stay in touch.

Bill

Got my Saturday parade Lap done this morning. A question.....

Do Y'all think it would be frowned upon to "Wheelie" the entire parade lap?

Just wondering

Bill

Trav-i · « **Reply #32 on:** August 22, 2011, 11:21:40 AM »

Hey Bill I think you'll be alright just don't pass the pace bike!

We might have to pool some funds and get Vern a Saturday parade lap.

Bluto · « **Reply #33 on:** August 22, 2011, 11:37:12 AM »

I would be happy to pitch in!

Also......Tammy (da wife) has expressed renewed interest in possibly coming over Friday evening. I'm still into riding over Thursday morning. She could drive her Honda Pilot and bring a firepot and some firewood and such. I'm not trying to turn thiis into a co-ed event.....but, is there any other spouse/significant other interest?

Chris? Vern? Travis? Adam?

Let me know.

Bill

Trav-i · « **Reply #34 on:** August 22, 2011, 12:58:50 PM »

HA HA!! You know me lone wolf!

Seriously, I don't think I'll be bringing anyone with me this time, and I know my sister won't be going with Chris (at least not til the young un's get a little older).

I say the more the merrier!

bluezboy · « **Reply #35 on:** August 23, 2011, 10:01:36 AM »

That would be cool if you guys want to ride an hour form Barbers to meet me, but no pressure. Just keep a beer chilled for me when I get there. I'll probably bring a small cooler stocked with apples, peanut butter and jelly and various snacks since I don't want to rely on over-priced greasy food there. I'm sure you guys know where we can get some wholesome southern cookin', I hope! My wife has no desire to attend especially on my bike, she refuses to ride even around the block on it. I guess I'll bring an extra helmet in case some cute woman needs a lift, I'm just saying.....

Bluto · « **Reply #36 on:** August 24, 2011, 12:05:56 PM »

Looks like we might be setting up for a "ride through the mountains" this Saturday. Vern,....you in?

Where are all the other Atlanta area guys?

Adam, where are you?

It's gonna be nice and cool (if we don't get rain) it aughta be a great day weather wise. Let's ride!!

Cool to see all the folks gearing up for Barber; I'm stoked! My little gjrl's birthday falls on a Monday this year; I'm good for all 3 days this time. Now I need to find out if we have "sag wagon", or fab up a trailer for the Goldwing....
If we have a sag vehicle, I'll be on my "750", otherwise I may ride the old "lazy-boy-interstate"....

Oh man, I want to ride this Saturday, but I think I need to be here to spend some time with my wife since she's headed out of town next weekend. What time were planning on riding Saturday? Who knows, she may allow to head up there, so let me know.

Trav-i · « **Reply #39 on:** August 25, 2011, 02:23:33 PM »

Plans are for around 11 O'clock.

Bluto · « **Reply #40 on:** August 25, 2011, 05:39:43 PM »

Might as well meet up near you Travis.....and then head north. You wanna pick a spot? 11 is good for me.

Let me know where.

Vern,

Cmon man........gotta get loose on them curvey roads (unless she says no)

Hope ya can make it. Anybody heard from Adam?

Bill

Nice pics Vern...thanks.

Anna Lee and I went back up for another round of curvy mountain roads today. Another 150 miles.

See y'all soon.

Just checking in. Trying to get the skinny for a bunch of Nashville folks that are coming down.. last year I remember you could put 3-4 bikes in "one" camping spot - is that true this year? We've officially booked two or three spots but I think there will be about 10 of us plus my girl's driving down with our gear. Looking forward to seeing y'all again!!!

Bluto · « **Reply #44 on:** September 10, 2011, 01:05:23 PM »

Looks like 4 of us have reserved 3 campsites in C. If y'all have 2-3...that should be plenty of tent space. Did they check credintials comin in the campground lot last year? I don't remember how that works. So far me....Travis and Chris are riding over Thursday am and coming back Sunday. Vern is coming Friday am.

Then we will go to this place

I'm pretty sure we're all good for the trip over on Thursday, and it would be awesome if you could ride over with us. There was some really great secenery along the way.

I hope you get to ride with us!
