Lady and gentlemen,
This is a FRIDAY TAG and forward to anyone I missed who may be interested!!!!
I'm calling it SUN Friday with a 90% chance I will definitely be on the bike! I just caught the forecast for the rest of the week and it appears Friday will be yet another opportunity to grab some sunshine, some gas, and the handle bars!!
So...here is the idea/suggestion. I know this is short notice, but what the heck. If anyone, AND I MEAN ANYONE would like to RIDE OUT Friday and find a spot for gp (general purpose), to eat, chill, kick back for a minute and hang out and catch the last sunny day of this week before the next rain, HOLA AT ME! Better yet, hola D!
My plan is to ride into work Friday, punch out, hook up with some riders anywhere...downtown (Varsity), Vortex, maybe somewhere off of 75 or 85, or even Southside is an option. It really doesn't matter. Again, I just want to take advantage of the opportunity before Saturday rains!
Any suggestions, comments, feedback...whatcha got?
FYI - Dont forget WOW (Marietta) is holding (FREE) motorcycle classes once a month. The first class is this week. March 17th. RSVP for training information, time and location.

Troy I dont know what town thats for but I got two sources that say that Scottdale and Kennesaw is supposed to be 65-66 and sunny on Friday. Its not supposed to rain Saturday either though.
I'm debating on if I want to ride in on Friday or not.

Yea I'm debating it. Still haven't registered the bike yet so I dont know if I want to risk riding around, especially in Kennesaw.

Yea I went on weather.com and when I google "weather" it shows up for Scottsdale which I guess is near Decatur? They say the same thing about 66 and sunny.

All - my apologies for the delay. I could not access the site yesterday. Anywho, I believe the forecast has changed yet again. In either case, it appears Friday remains consistent. Myself and a few others are looking for a convenient spot so as to not place anyone in a position were they have to travel too far out of the way. Personally, I am thinking the normal 'spots' (Varsity...Vortex..etc)

A'ight..here we go!!
Foremost - Good morning!! Secondly, and all that matters (smile). We have a couple of suggestions for the Friday connect tomorrow. They are...
Varsity - http://www.thevarsity.com/
Vortex - http://www.thevortexbarandgrill.com/
La Parrilla - http://laparrilla.com/
or the infamous Dugans - http://atlanta.citysearch.com/profile/2997464/atlanta_ga/dugan_s.html
Other suggestions are welcomed. What say you all? I would like to have something definitive before noon to ensure WE all know the plan before sun down in preparation for tomorrow.

why don't we try to have a ride In Kennesaw on Sat? I'm going for a ride now i'll check this post later on and see what you guy's come up with. Last time I had a meet was at the Bp station (barett parkway) and 10 sportbikes showed up.

I'm up for either Friday or Saturday. I'm practically salivating seeing that the temp will be about 68 degrees. Just let me know.

I (we) can definitely do that! As a matter of fact we did a couple of weekends ago. We meet up with some friends and headed North. Hit some NICE (I mean really) NICE backroads. Come to think about it. We met at Jersey Mikes and headed back to the BP to gas up. Keep me posted (anytime).
OKAY!! For all riders interested in getting out tomorrow. We finally made a decision. We are going to meet at Rio Grande in Buckhead. Time is not a factor as some of us plan to arrive by mid-afternoon and just hang out. I am not sure how long we intend to there, but speaking for myself....I will be out until and/or a little after sunset, as I have another engagement. Another rider and I will be connecting on Ashford Dunwoody at the Exxon gas station around 1PM before heading downtown if anyone in that area wants to connect.
If your like me and have never been to this location I have a contact number and address: (404) 237-5020 - 3227 Roswell Rd NE - Atlanta, GA 30305
Perform your TCLOCKS, gear up, mount up and come socialize. Who knows what the evening and night will turn into? Whatever happens, it wont matter because I'm on the BIKE!!
