blackdogbrian · 04-21-2011, 12:13 AM

If anyone else is looking to hit the rally for a day trip (tuesday), I'll be riding in from atlanta.
in early enough to catch the tail ride and back to my hotel in atlanta by days end.

If anyone else is doing the same, I'm more then happy to pair up riding. Just let me know

Hope you have Iron butt you are looking at close to 550 mile to come out of Atlanta to Maggie Valley 177 mile closeset route 4 hours and 30 min. then the Dragon ride and leaving at Tallahasee going back south to Atlanta 256 miles 6hours 30min this is by my Street Atlas on my computer Do not know what time the Dragon ride will start but might want to ride up the afternoon before

Tom,

Your picture is giving me a headache. It's too "fuzzy". Sorry, just thought I'd mention it.

I am working on it can not seem to get it size reduced .

That is about a 175 mile trip and may I add if the "Traffic Gods" aren't with you this could take you more than the 3.5 hours google says. Where is your hotel ????

tom - the image is working fine for me.

Thanks for the feed back folks.
I tried to put everything in google maps

it looks like a long day, but should be do-able.
I'd love to come out longer, but I'm in atlanta for work and can't take more then a day.
