Hey John,

Care to meet me in Dallas in March? Dinner is on me. I have to go there to see my business partner and will be driving the Blue Zoomer. Dallas has some of the best restaurants in the country (more restaurants per capita than any city in the country) and some beautiful eye candy (think TH's avatar). Driving in Texas aint so great but the rest of the south (AL, MS, AK, MO for example) has some seriously fun driving roads.

Let's meet for a beer at a pub somewhere in MD, PA or VA and discuss this road trip.

Wait a minute, there are some nice drives in Tejas, especially in the hill country and northeast Texas. The Triumph club I ride with has explored many of them. You should check it out sometime.

On your way out of FL grab my nephew (AMGETR) and drag his *** over here. We could have some serious fun when we meet up.

......count me in for a weekend roadtrip. the '06 potomac de schedule is up at www.pcapotomac.org register early if you want to get into the summit point events. you can always join other regions at the track too check their sites for dates. schattenbaum is always a good group to run with. FYI-- potomac now requires a high performance clinic for 0 track day drivers. they have one coming up in march or april.

as for a road trip..anyone consider "tail of the dragon" on the nc/tenn border??

313 turns...11 miles... 'bout an 8-9 hour juant from b-more..just an idea

I'm game for any of the options mentioned. I'd prefer something that includes some track time, but twisty back roads ain't bad either!! Should we start a list of those interested (maybe you already have!!)?????

Good ideal - have yet to start collecting a list of names cause I don't think we know in which direction we are heading in...

So - Do we want to all run out to Texas to meet with our West Coast Brothers and Sisters?
Or - Do we want to run down to the "Tail of the Dragon" for an East Coast event (Florida to Boston it's a one day trip - then a great day of local driving)
Or - Are we all looking to attend an event (Race - PDE, ETC.)...

I'll start collecting names as soon as we determine an area to migrate too!
