Nov 5, 06 Lookin to do a run down Blood Mountian, I'd like to see if anybody would like to go, any experience welcome. I'm going to be there. Bring money for food, drinks, walkie talkies. It'd be good to get a lot of people together. Please sign up here and I'll see what we can do afterwords. If you'd like to get togther before or afterwords drop an email to timberwolf0924@gmail.com or PM me for my number (I lost my cell so it'll be my home phone) Hope to get a bunch of us together and get out there. We'll get a meeting place and ride out there together. -Chino-
Sounds dangerous :wiggle: If I've recovered from my 21st B-day by then, count me in . Google says its up near Vogel State Park, about 2 hours north of downtown. I'll be passing through there this weekend on my fall break mountain run, might check it out.
Blood's the destination. It's fun about 45 minutes out of Atlanta all the way to Blood. It'll be a fun 200 mile day. I lived up there for a year so if you need a good route let me know. Keep it SAFE. I'd go too, but I'm in Colorado.
I might be down for that...got the big 30 bday a couple days ahead...I will have to check and see what the family has planned for that weekend.
sounds good to me.And yes it will be nice with the leaves and the cool weather.Blood mtn is the big hill across from the hiker store at the gap .you know the place where all the motorcyclists turn around and race back down the road.
blood mountain is up near were we have done previous mtn runs. Its pretty good windy roads. Little less traffic imo, be careful out there fellas.
I believe 129 goes over Blood Mt. Its basically part of the normal loop all the guys run up there. 60 / 180 / 129.
So Far We Have: (Please tell me if I'm wrong) Galimore - Justin SilverBullet - Mark Crashtke(?) DroopyDoobyDoo MattPrzy - Matt? sorry I don't know you're names yet, but I'll get them down soon enough. Edit: I am planing to just be on the main road, I know there're are trails, but I don't think we can get on them. Even if we tried. map of where we're going :bowdown: :bowdown:
welcome aboard also if anyone has a radar detecor that'd be good if they could bring it, just in case.
This will be fun....Just have to be safe at all times and observe the speed limits,bicyclists,etc..... also it's very important to have walkie-talkies... Mark
I won't be able to make it I have a temporary tires on right now that are horrible, I can actually smoke all four in the dry... :| As soon as I get some new ones, its on! I got a little something planned for the suspension also...
Hey, I got a guy who says he's been up the mountian litteraly hundreds of times, he used to live on the other side of the mountian, and wants to run with us, he doesn't have a suby but he wasnts to know how many others have been on this mountian. If not many he'd like to take lead, any questions or problems drop me email.
hard to tell ya b/c I dont have the mile markers memorized. one is coming over the Wolf Pen Gap on the side of the road. If you go up there enough you will start to realize where to umm slow down a little LOL.
ok guys now that we're a week away, what time of day would be a good run for y'all. I can do a run almost anytime of the day, I just have to get a heads up, it's abou 45 min from my location. If you want to do a morning run, I hear those are worse, the mountian roads have rocks and dirt on them, an afternoon run, could be traffic, or a night run, it'll be dark. I can do any, just post what ya want and the majority will win it.
I'm in, preferably morning/early afternoon. I have SHIT tires right now, so I won't be able to show nyone up with my driving scrills J/K
For me the later the better. usu go to church in a.m.usu. go to mtns. early afternoon.coming from east cobb it is about 1.5 hrs give or take.
how does 9:30 - 10:00 sound? If we could get started around then it'd be great. Make sure to bring everything ya need. Click Here for Meeting Directions Just fill in your address and we'll meet there. If you think earlier is better than I can go earlier. Are we going to stop for lunch or are we just going to ride around and then disperse, it'd be great to sit down to lunch with all the guys/gals. And bring anybody who wants to come, it's not suby exclusive, I have a guy bringing a Acura, a crx if he can get it running and a civic if he decides to come. So tell your friends, it's all cars welcome. Though subys will take the lead right.
I vote for morning before 9 am, I don't think that I can do anything later...I have to pick up something in Kennesaw between 12 and 4 pm. Mark
Hey Dustin, those directions are for the Cleveland store, I'm just gonna meet you all up there since thats kinda, well, way out of the way...
heh, I also invited the 3-digit boyz. They're a bike club and they said they'd try to have some guys out there on bikes. From what I heard about 30 of them are planing on joining us. Though it was just rumor.
Hey, do you think that there's a closer place to meet. The bike club usually meets at the Waffle House in Lula, but I'm not sure whats closer. They said they'd meet us at there.
For me, its be easier to meet at your Gainesville Store... I guess I could meet you there since you live so close, and then we could caravaan where ever
New plans came up for me for sunday, so I'm going to have to sit this one out. Sorry that I won't be coming.
Sorry you won't be coming. Hopefully we'll be able to do another one sometime soon and you'll be able to come.
also don't forget cameras, it's always good to have a few with you if you have disposeable cameras. I'm bringing my digital camera hopefully it'll have a good run. I'd bring a video camera but I can't find a way to mount it on the hood of my car, which would be cool. Anyway, hope to see a good turn out. If anybody is closer to gainesville then I can get you directions to the Lam's in gainesville, so we can ride up to clevland together if you want. See yall there.
I have my dvd camera which I have a mount for on my rear deck(?)(area behind back seats). I may not be able to meet up with you all early. Look for me up there . steel grey stock exc. Sti muffler.
the bikers won't meet up with us until 11, they said they'd 'catch up to us' before we reach the end.
Are you still going to be up there at around 1:30 pm?. I need to pick up some supplies at noon in Kennesaw. I can meet you all up there... Mark
i probably will just be getting up there.Yeah, got up there after 1:30 or so. Only saw 1 or 2 wrxs. An 06 silver STI twice. And then around 4:30 there was a bad motorcycle crash were there was a rescue helicopter and everything.
