Howdy all.
I would like to meet with all those ryding to gatlinburg.
I have not established my agenda but it is felexable as long as I am in Gatlingburg Wed.
As to a meeting place for the group ride we could meet at Wildwood at the steak and shake and all leave from there. Regarless if we all meet one Monday or Tuesday would be ok. If we left Monday we would have two nights on the road whereas Tue only one night. or leave Tue noonish and ride straight thru. However, I am not sure all want the straight thru ride.
call me (407-520-1061) and/or post your agenda and if you are willing to ride as a group.

What date are you leaving and what date are you coming back? How many nights in a motel room. ? I'm gonna try to swing this , but just not sure how yet.

Either Mon 20th or Tue 21st early early AM with stop over, or 21st Tue Noonish with straight thru ride, arriving Gatlinburg Wed around noon.

So in summary... Maybe one night on road, 3 nights at gatlinburg, and either leaving Sat ( Sometime ) and maybe 1 night on the road or then again straight thru.

It is hard for me to believe that there is no one going to Gatlinburg, or at least providing their agenda in the travel.
Would be nice to know, or perhaps it is too early for the decisions.

Hey Forest,
Myself and a friend of mine (2 spyders), were thinking of leaving out on Sunday, but Monday works for us too. We just have to be back in Tampa by late Sunday night. I can't do a straight through ride due to shoulder issues, but I can do a long ride, stay night somewhere, then ride in as you had proposed. So, if you end up doing the Monday, stay over thing, and on way back, stay over thing, you can count us in ;)

I thought you guys were doing the FL express.
I am going and would love some Company. I plan to leave on the 21st and make it a 2 day back road ride. (I will run Interstate to Lake City) then pretty much straight up 441, or 75 to Macon and then 129. Stop over in GA somewhere. (I don't think it will be a huge deal to get a room on Tuesday night)

I will not do a 1 day on the way up as the last 100 miles are the hardest, twistiest, prettiest, best, miles and I am not doing those when I am tired.
A 1 day on the way back is doable, but why?

I run speed limit + 5 or 10 ..... Never 15 over (I can slow down but I wont risk a "big ticket")

These simple rules look harsher than they really are. I am just saying that if you ride 55(or less) on the interstate or 100+, I am not your riding partner.

I would be happy to meet up in Wildwood anytime on Tuesday. Late morning would be best for me but am flexable

Hello Fl. Peeps

Not positive if I am going to make the run, but if so, hope to see some of you up there. Remember though, you go up the hills, and down the hills, and actually have to turn the bars to get around the corners...LOL

If you're heading up I-85 out of Atlanta, you'll be within 10 miles of my home. I'll be heading out Wednesday morning, so might be wanting to join up as you pass by.

Well, fellow sypder people here is a flexable plan.

Meet, Tuesday Sept 21, at Wildwood at the Steak and Shake in Wildwood, 154 E State Road 44 At 9:00 AM. If 9 is too early then lets try 10 AM.. However, between gas and eat at steak and shake I would think we will be there 1 hr for our meet and greet..

My thoughts, it would be great if we can get through Atlanta before or after the rush hours. I do believe 4PM thru 6:30 is the afternoon rush.

I would like to get North of Atlanta prior to overnight stop but that is open and we can discuss that when we meet..

Robbie ( Teacher ) will be riding with me and I will be pulling my trailer and have our reservations at the Westgate Resort, 915 Garden Rd, Gatlinburg, TN..

My cell is 407-520-1061

Please post if you are riding or meeting on the way. If meeting on the way, please provide your contact number so that we can keep each posted as to time of meet.

Wish we could commit, but we're still not sure of our route or timing. Guess we'll have to decide pretty soon. Wife just got out of the hospital, so we are going to take it pretty slow, may have to make a 3 day trip out of it just so she's ok. But we are looking forward to meeting everyone up there.

Couple of ways to go:
There is only 2 roads I 75 to Lake city to 441 north all the way to Gatlinburg
I like this one the best and it is the shortest and least interstate (not the fastest but a pretty ride through some old south towns)

Or this way:
A bit more interstate, a bit farther and a bit faster but still avoid Atlanta.
There is really only 3 roads
I75 to Macon, 129 north to 441 north.

Took another short ryde yesterday. Only around 125 miles and I can now say that unless the healing process really speeds up, I am going to miss Lamonts BBQ. I guess I should have been listening to others and taking it easy from the start instead of working on the Spyder and stuff. 2 days left to see how it works out. If not, hope you all get some good pics and have a great time. Those of us not making it will keep Spyderlovers busy posting something...LOL

I like that first route that you also like the best Shrimp.

Doc and I have returned to Fl safe with no issues.

13.5 hrs for me.. Not sure what Doc finished up with.

Sis and I just got home (Monday, about noon), after riding to Cumming, Ga to see our daughter, then over to western Ga. Great trip, no problems, and the only rain we had was last night and this morning, which cleared as soon as we hit I-10 and headed east.

Glad we finally got to meet some of the Florida Express and we're looking forward to riding with y'all soon.

Cheers,

Mike
