I'm up for it.
Where would the center of the SE region be or at least the center of where the SE regional members are?

There's the Antlers rally in October, that's South Central, but fairly close to you.
Historically, regional rallies are held in the off-year of the national rally. You're more than welcome to come to Estes Park, you know.

There's no reason not to have a SE rally in the year there is a National. As long as it doesn't compete with the national.
I vote we do something over a weekend in September or October that gets us into the Fall Color. Can be anything from the Natchez Trace to anywhere along the Apalachian Mtns from North GA to SC/NC to VA.

Not from your Region but a Rally centered on the Natchez Trace sound like a winner.
The SC Region is holding a 2013 rally next week http://vulcanbagger.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32186

Natchez Trace in the fall sounds really good! I am a definite maybe at this point!

CJ stated what is normally the case for the regional rallies. In the years of national rallies, the regions, in the past, have not held regional rallies per say. We were the host region for the last national so didn't host a formal gathering in 2011.
I was going to throw out the idea of a fall ride for our region. My thought is that we could do something in mid-October. Remember that our region is comprised of the following states: Kentucky Tennessee West Virginia Virginia North Carolina South Carolina Alabama Georgia Florida Natchez Trace Parkway sounds like a nice ride but to be more central to our region, N GA, NC or somewhere in that area seems to be a better fit. It is ultimately up to the members to decide. Throw your ideas out and we'll figure out which one sticks.

If considering N GA I recommend Copperhead Lodge in Blairesville.
http://www.thelodgeatcopperhead.com/ They have great lodging with covered bike parking, cabins with garages, full hotel rooms and a bunkhouse. Fantastic bar with live music most nights and a top notch restaurant. It is also central to lots of good riding including the GA Gauntlet (133 miles of smiles) http://gauntletga.com/ I know the owners and could help make arrangements but if this is going down, we would have to act fast since that's peak season here.
