I was just gonna get the ball rolling on this. Very timely indeed, Jim...I read your car was in the shop recently. What were you having done to it?

This year, I'm trying to convince a friend of mine to ride with me - he is seriously considering 993's right now, and one meeting with everyone here will surely close the deal for him!

Hey Jim, I'll be there....where are we meeting? Same starbucks as last year's?

Ed, remember... no mercy for your friend. He has to barf at the top of the mountain to make it official.

Sounds like a plan to me. Shoot for an early departure to miss the popo on the mtns? 8am?

Hey guys...I'm at the beach this week but will be happy to find a place to meet in Dahlonega if that's desirable (I think we've outgrown Slack Auto Parts' parking lot) and post it next week...Also thought about setting up a couple of rendevous points along the way so that the slower guys like me would have "catch-up points" and then maybe a final lunch location in Helen for a New years beer and brats...Is that making it too complicated? Just let me know.

Great idea Terry! We ended the extended drive last year in Helen.

Route under development. I will send you a pm for review.
