(CANCELLED) Ride To Helen, GA.

**goose** · 02-17-2009, 11:57 PM

Hey Everyone, If anyone is interested in going down to Helen before the Spring Rally, we are leaving out from Hardees beside TractorSupplyCO. on keith st in Cleveland, TN. at 9am. Everyone is welcome to come along, so far it looks like the ones that are going are some from the PolarBearRide. It would be a great time to check-out places to stay or to eat at during the Rally. Looking forward to seeing everyone! [GOOSE]----------------------------- FEB. 28TH Was rained-out postponed till March 14TH. [GOOSE]------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----

Goose, wish I could join you for sure. Be on the look out for some places to eat for sure.

rhunt4 · 02-18-2009, 11:42 AM

I have my bike in five or six pieces or I would go.

**goose** · 02-19-2009, 12:29 AM

Coach, ALWAYS on the the look-out for a good watering-hole! Rhunt4, you still have a week and half to get that bike put back together we'll wait for you! I don't think it took them that long to put Humpty Dumpty back together again! ha ha [GOOSE]

Goose....are you coming through Blairsville on your way to Helen? Taking RT348 off RT180?

**goose** · 02-19-2009, 09:24 AM

Yea Dixie, that's the plan so far, don't know if we'll go down there through Blairsville and come back through Suches or viceversa, but for sure going across 348 can't miss that view from there. I always like taking a different route back than on the way down one of the guys that might be going with us hasn't got SC colored in on his patch so we may come back over that way, up through Highlands but haven't decide on that yet, don't know if we'll have that much time. You want us to meet-up with you somewhere on the way? [GOOSE]

Let me know your schedule. Might try to meet up with you....but I'll bring up the rear until I get a little comfortable with the car tire!!

rhunt4 · 02-20-2009, 04:19 PM

We will see. I am having gas tank painted and tring to put on a trunk and mount a J&M 2003 dual cb. I mostly work slow too.i still have six days left though

**goose** · 02-22-2009, 08:13 PM

Hey Rhunt4, let me know how that trunk works out I've had one waiting in the garage to go on since June along with a RadioCaddyFairing just haven't got around to mounting them hope everything works out well.[GOOSE]

**goose** · 02-22-2009, 08:17 PM

Hey Dixie, we are leaving Cleveland at around 9am should roll through Blairsville about 10:15 to 10:30, let me know if you want us to meet you somewhere? [GOOSE]

dkdixie · 02-23-2009, 08:34 AM

Goose.....I may have something else going on Sat, but right now I'll plan to be at the pulloff on top Helen mountain, first pulloff on the RIGHT (the one with the great view) after you cross
Appalachian Trail @ 10:15. OK

**goose** · 02-23-2009, 10:49 AM

Ok Dixie we'll look for you on the way through. Hopefully we'll get a nice day for a ride.[GOOSE]

dkdixie · 02-27-2009, 09:15 AM

Goose.......I assume that if your new car tire is not "studded snow tire," you are probably canceling your trip to Helen.
Went over Helen mountain yesterday, fog was horrible. It cleared up in 3-4 miles though.
Weather looks worse for tomorrow........

**goose** · 02-27-2009, 09:20 AM

Dixie just finished sending you a pm about that yea looks like Sat. the 14th?[GOOSE]

rhunt4 · 02-27-2009, 11:26 AM

Goose if you have your trunk painted do not take the trim off, it is a bi--h to put back on. I am guessing you have a ventura trunk
