Kinsley Posted January 17, 2013 Author Share Posted January 17, 2013 IN Terry Terry, are sure about this? I mean, have you looked at the mileage? You'll have to get up before 10:30 Link to comment
terryofperry Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Ken, I have been meaning to talk to you and Bernie about that. The lunches are creeping further and further away. I am working on a solution to keep you guys straight though. I am drawing a line with Basecamp from Atlanta to Jacksonville factoring in the western Florida group, adding in Tenn. with Alan and the South Carolina riders, dividing it in half, doing some geometry and trig. resulting in a line along the east/west corridor of middle Georgia and having ya'll stick to that radius. Oh wait, we already did that with Yoders, 12 miles from the house. Hopefully with enough stops to stretch I should make it the 98 miles to Crossroads. The concerns of a friend are very much appreciated and in my case always welcome. The things I do to break bread with you guys. Be well. Terry Link to comment

Lone_RT_rider Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Bump Bump. Route planned. Still considering this... I hope you can make it. A good size ride maybe helpful. The doctor has me cleared for riding on Feb 18th. I will do some riding to work that week before hand. That will really determine how I feel and if I can do this. Link to comment
steveknapp Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Shawn, Doc? "Cleared for riding"? What happened? Link to comment
SSTwin Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Bump Bump. Route planned. Bernie, I'll be there if US Air gets me back on time on the 22nd. Looking forward to another "Bernie "blast up there. Link to comment
Foot Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I may be able to make this one, if mother nature cooperates! Link to comment
Lone_RT_rider Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I may be able to make this one, if mother nature cooperates! You dont have ski ourriggers to get that GS down off the mountain? I thought the GS could do EVERYTHING. Link to comment

Foot Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 I have gone off the mountain and found black ice half way down. I did two consecutive S turns on 2 wheels and my humans ski feet. That was NOT fun! Plus my butt was clinched so tight I didn't crap for a week! Alan Link to comment

By the way more fiber in your diet may help the other problem. Link to comment
steve.foote Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I just realized that this event is a week later than I thought. Unfortunately, I will be involved in my last customer move that weekend. That sucks, but I'll catch you guys at the next one. Link to comment

bayoubengal Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Unfortunately weather.com is showing 52 degrees and 60% chance of rain both Perry and Swainsboro... Link to comment
terryofperry Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Bernie, the weather is always good in Florida. Just answered your PM David and would enjoy the company. Ken has been kidding me regarding the long and lonely distance so I could use the help. Ya'll be safe, looking forward to it. Terry Link to comment

terryofperry Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Yes Sir, always appreciative, see ya there. Terry Link to comment
Foot Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Looks like two days of potential rain has made a wimp outta me. I'm begging out barring a total break down of the forecast and outbreak of sun. I will try to make the next one. Alan Link to comment
Kinsley Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 It's a long way for you in less than perfect conditions unless you're trying out some new rain gear We'll probably do one more lunch in March, then look forward to seeing everyone in the mountains until next October when we start looking for more Comfort Food.

Foot Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 HA HA weather forecast changed from 70% both days to 40% friday and 10% on Saturday here. Lets see how much it changes in the next few days. Alan Link to comment
bayoubengal Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Perry is down to 49 degrees and 70% chance of rain, Swainsboro down to 51 and 70%... Did I see where you guys went to Yoders? Can't believe I missed that. That's probably 25 miles from me. My own fault - I had gotten to where I kept up with several STers on Facebook and seldom went to ST. I think I'll re-engage on ST...

Bernie Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Hutch, I tried to post it on Facebook, but I ain't sure how to make it visible for all. Link to comment
terryofperry Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 David You and I are blessed to be in the middle of these guys traveling from FL., TN., SC., NC., Atlanta, etc. Yoder's two years in a row, Hawkinsville, Dublin twice, Eastman, etc. Cannot ask for a better group.

bayoubengal Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Great. I met a few of them at a Tech Day east of ATL couple years back. Hate I got sidetracked and missed all of those... Link to comment
Bernie Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Don't worry Hutch, it is a annual thing, this winter riding in the south. See you Saturday. PS: if the event is too close to home, you can always detour north or south a little and take the long way, because it is all about the ride, lunch is secondary. Link to comment
Lone_RT_rider Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 I've been hoping that I would be on the mend and be able to make this. I have ridden and feel comfortable riding, but long term vibration may not be good for me for a while. I think as much as I am itching to ride, I am going to have to lean towards the cautious side and bow out of this. I really, really want to go... Have fun everyone. If there is an event in March, I will try to make it. Shawn Link to comment
Kinsley Posted February 21, 2013 Author Share Posted February 21, 2013 It looks like it would have been a very wet trip anyway Shawn. If it's looking like a 60% chance or more I may not go myself, but we will plan a March Lunch to end the season. March 9th is looking good for me at the moment. Link to comment
Lone_RT_rider Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 If I was healed, the rain wouldn't stop me. Link to comment
Bernie Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 So it may rain. Better then snow. Link to comment

You guys really want to do this? Yes, they have changed our plans before with the fear mongering predictions to get higher ratings. You can bet, if we call it off it will be a glorious day I will make the call tomorrow sometime after checking several weather predictions. Link to comment
bayoubengal Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 True. I'm standing by until late tomorrow also. Link to comment
Bernie Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Rain or shine, I will need something to eat for lunch. So you guys better show up, or I be sitting there by myself, hopefully not with a bunch of hog riders. Link to comment
