Count me in as a possible weather permitting. I live close to where 400 ends so this is somewhat in "my backyard." I do have plans later on so if this doesn't step on them I'm interested; what are the details.

This is a weather-permitting event of course. Sometimes there is a route, other times not so much. We've always had fun.

Anyone interested in a 2013 edition?

Count me in, weather permitting.

This could be a potential VERY fun route, lots of twisties and elevation changes... about 2 hours drive to Helen. Hwy 60 > Wolf Gap > Hwy 348 are a lot of fun and very good roads. Just a possible suggestion of a route.

9:00 am at the Home Depot works for me!

Atlantans, what time should we pre-assemble at Starbucks off exit 13?

Thanks, Terry! Lots of press this month, for sure.. Its been hard earned!

I haven't been able to get in much hunting time this season, and I need to put something in the freezer so I'll be in the woods on Tuesday morning.

But I suppose you guys could stop by if you wanted to change the route by about 5 miles in the afternoon. We have been shut down since the 20th but I have some cool stuff in process, as always. Let me know if you want to do this and I can make it happen on my end. I even have another 4.2 DFI engine completed and ready to install :-)

Its only 5 miles from Richard Russell where it intersects with Alt 75 to my facility, might be a good place to stop by for some coffee and snacks before heading to Unicoi.

Thanks Jake! I'm know that there are several of us who would like to see what you're doing up there. I haven't been in the shop in several years so I definitely want to see it. We could easily come by on the tail end of the drive. That way, those who have time to stop can do so and those needing to get home could drive on. We usually finish the drive with lunch, so let us know what time would be best for you...
