Also, I know a guy (early 60's) who goes from Turner's corner over Neal's Gap to 180, over Wolfpen to Suches, over Woody Gap and back to Turner's on a bicycle in about 2 hours. Roughly 30 miles. Any takers?

Perhaps - but the route and map were already posted. This is just a better version. I can remove and just have people PM me if interested.

I just don't want tickets, especially for guest89, and watch out for my cycling buddy. Have a great time!!!

aka 3-Gap, my best time is about 2:10, but not right now. Photo is from earlier this year on Wolfpen. The route covers most of the 6-Gap century ride. Much easier in a air-cooled flat six

You guys should all get the Waze GPS app, it lets you all track your friends location on the map and report any accidents or police activity.

Hi guys, last year was a lot of fun and I'll be in this year as well. Not sure whether it'll be just me and my wife in the Cayman, or with our new bundle in the Cayenne. If it's the latter, I'll be sure to bring up the rear. Looking forward to it!

I don't think the pigs know how to use the internet.

I have only seen cops out once on those roads, coming back from Highlands in June I passed one on 356 and then saw a few more coming into Blairsville after Richard B. Russell - I was lucky. Knock on wood, no tickets for me this afternoon coming up there or on Monday...

If the past five years is any indication, we'll see very little coordinated law enforcement effort on New Years Eve. The greater danger for law enforcement becoming involved lies in someone in our group doing something to **** off a non-Rennlister and them subsequently calling the law. This has become common now that everyone is carrying a cell phone. A little patience and courtesy can go a long way. The bottom line is that each of us is responsible for his/her own behavior. You make your choices and live with the consequences.

You guys are too quick for me, just let me know where the Brew-Stop is and I'll meet you there (plus all I have to drive is the girly car)! Was up in Dahlonega yesterday, police were out in force on 400 & 9.

Richard Russell Scenic Hwy is closed this morning....Should open by 10:00 AM but will probably be sanded/salted.

I'd like to avoid salt as much as possible. A few years ago we did out snow/ice run in my old GT3 for NYE and it tore the **** out of my components underneath.

Trying to keep the RS extra clean.

AtlJimK

We made until last weekend without the cold/ice, darn it. The best bet is for us to run Neel's/Woody's Gaps and the other low lying/South facing roads. Maybe Neel's twice on the way to Helen. Further discussion tomorrow.

AtlJimK

Chris we will making our usual stop in Helen afterwards. Shoot me your cell via pm and I'll call when we are about an hour out. I suspect near noon. It will be either of the two watering holes right on the river at the bridge.

That sounds fine. What killed it a few years ago was the fact that it was wet too so it got stuck up in the drop links etc. It'll remain dry from now until Tuesday so we should be fine as it'll be dried up... But as you suggested let's stay on the south facing mountains/roads.
Worse case is you can wash the undercarriage off afterwards.

Guest89

Did you receive a measurable quantity of snow? It snowed enough in Blue Ridge that I was reluctant to drive anywhere in the 993.

I would like to avoid salt, as well.
