Anyone coming up I-16W or I-75N might consider Exit 167 --
Watch the hairpin 270-degree ramp!

I am recommending this location because I had late lunch there today...

AND....

(1) Statewide Central Location
Almost everyone in the state can make it!
Here is the 125 mile radius map:

(2) Excellent Menu at good prices
Touring bike road food par-excellence --
Pulled pork-- ribs - chicken -- etc.

(3) Easy, convenient/safe motorcycle parking
Biiiig strip-mall paved parking lot!

(4) Semi-private meeting/dining room for Meet & Greet

Please indicate your RTE participation on this thread so I can give them a heads-up.

Please indicate number of bikes and headcount for food!?!

I am bringing at least three bikes with me from Fayette County.
5 - 7 folks depending on 2-ups..

Ride Safe, Y'all....

All Y'all!

I now have to beg out of this one as I'm heading to the NC mountains, but will do my best to make the next one. Mark.

Dang....sure hate to miss an opportunity to ride (and eat BBQ), but will be stuck at LAX airport until May 9 in a work gig. Looks like the weather is perfect for riding so hope everyone has a great time.
Regards & regrets,
Terry

As much fun as this sounds, and how much I love BBQ I have to say I can't make it. I have to work and my ST is not in good enough shape to make that kind of ride. If I have a new steed by the time the next one comes around ( there will be a "next one" wont there?) I'll pull strings at work to go.
