Spring Bash ~ April 28-30

[bronc3]

Yeah, but vman, I SUCKED in the mountains of VA back in the fall...I mean, I was so out of my element...I keep telling myself it was because I hadn't ridden in months due to the back surgery, but I was a nervous wreck as soon as we hit the twisties. I just don't ever ride 'em, so I was a mess...

Honestly, after my many mistakes in the twisties then coming up on Mike after a Camaro hit him on the HD, I wanted to be lifted from the area and plopped back on to some nice sweepers on the highway! LOL

If I do go, you guys leave me in the back and don't follow me!!!!!

This road is not about riding fast or seeing how quick you can ride throught the Gap. These get togethers are about getting together with people who share the same passion for our great sport and a love of the Hayabusa.

There are many different paces that are present in this group. I know there will be someone you can ride a comfy pace with.

If you would like I will be more than happy to lead you through.

There are better roads in this area that are more suited to a bike like ours. the Skyway and 28 are not to be missed.

Make plans now and join this great event.

+1 Kev. Funny how many people get so wrapped up in the Dragon, they don't realize how many fantastic roads are right there in the same area with less traffic. I was one of those people, until my first trip up there that is.

I can't wait to ride all of these "roads" and the Dragon. The closest thing i've seen is the little bit when at Road Atlanta. Good thing I have some guides to get me familiar with the area.

Is it April yet?

 

[georgiabusa_05]

think I will go to bed and dream about it.

 

[zukracer]

hmm, so who else can we rope into coming to the event

If you know of anyone, friends/relatives with other types of bikes, by all means bring them along

I imagine we'll have one "group" style ride so that we can get a couple of pictures on Sat but since we didnt have much luck doing the group thing at one of the other bashes, we'll just make some maps available for area rides.

So far in our cabin, we have the following.

James-Cbr600
Ian- R1
Doug- R1
Marty- R1

We may even cram a few more in there as well, we will just wait and see.

Head up my way (and keep going a bit further) to the FL version of the "Dragon" (more like a salamader tho!).

head up to Ozello .... US19 / SR98 & SR494. take it east to the dead end....it's not long...it's not pretty...but it's surely not straight.

YOU CAN COUNT ME IN FOR THE BASH THIS SPRING. I MADE MY RESERVATION TODAY AT THE PHILLIP'S, WE ARE IN ROOM #1. SO FAR IT'S MY BROTHER AND I, WITH 3-4 MAYBE'S. CANT WAIT TO RIDE WITH U GUYS IN THE SPRING.

keep them coming guys and gals... anyone wanna bet on having 75 or 100 bikes there

 

[georgiabusa_05]

We really do need to do a group shot. That would be really cool, 50 or so Busas, maybe set a time on Saturday, after breakfast maybe or lunch. gotta get this together.

we have to get a good sized group to at least run the GAP just once...so that KillBoy can grab a few shots of all the Busas passing thu at once.

Absolutely, gotta have pics.!
A nice aerial shot of the bikes spelling out Hayabusa.Org would be a collectors item too.  

Hey Leo,
PM JohnStein, don't want to speak for him but I think we have room in our cottage.

[johnstein]

im up for the group rides , just have to figure out where tp go after . that

 

[zukracer]

I put together a set of rides for folks at one of the bashes.... typically its not something easy to pull off up there. We will have to have buy in from all the folks to actually agree to ride to a place or be at a place at time X for the shot.

Of course we will probably run on RST for that, and have to budget about a 30min fudge factor cuz shid happens. As for maps of the area tailofthedragon.com has some good ones and I have some as well. Basically look at their site and check out mapquest for Robbinsville NC

 

[georgiabusa_05]

lets just set a time and place, meet and take a couple of shots. hopefully alot of folks will show up.
