Interesting update.

A local Moto Guzzi dealer is hoping to bring the truck of demo bikes to the Georgia campout. I believe the bikes are heading to Barbers after that, so he hopes to bring them to the campout first.

He hopes to show up Thursday the 19th and be there through Sunday.

Cool.

I will post more details if things change.

I hope the demo bikes show up. I'd love to try out the new V100, and also a V85tt.

Same weekend as the Kentucky rally, and the same weekend I already have plans up at Land Between the Lakes. Feast or famine.

I wonder if we can smoke the tires. I'll bet Wayne is leading.

I can’t make it as I’m throwing a 60th birthday party for my wife Saturday the 21st. Have fun everyone!

Weather forecast is all over the place. One says sunny skies, another says rain all weekend. Wish they could make up their minds. Really, really botched the forecast with tropical storm Francine. Said the Chattanooga area was going to get 1.5 to 2 inches of rain. Supposed to start raining Thursday and rain through Monday. Could not have been more wrong. We got a couple of showers yesterday, and that was it. Maybe 1/4 to 1/2 inch. Must be nice to have a job where you can be completely wrong 100% of the time and not get fired!

Ron are you riding up from Orlando again? ( I have the California and we did some rides together earlier at Two's )

Unless they are sold out, TWO'S has lodge rooms and cabins.

Yes Two's has already been sold out. I just gave Kennedy's as a alternate.

Never stayed there but I recently noticed that they now have opened a Tavern there.

Unfortunately, there are other plans that will keep me from attending. Would have been a good time to refine the camping setup a bit more. I will likely be able to see the Southeast Motorcycle folks in Savannah however.

The lady at my hotel said the reason for the exorbitant hotel prices and lack of vacancies is a big bicycle race around the Dahlonega area. I can't find anything about it on line. The big Six Gap race is the following weekend, so I hope she got her dates mixed up. Now the wx is calling for a major heat wave. Heck, 90+ degrees will be pretty tough on me!

Are the Moto Guzzi demos confirmed?

Wayne Orwig · « **Reply #24 on:** September 19, 2024, 06:56:12 PM »

The bikes are there.

Motormike · « **Reply #25 on:** September 19, 2024, 07:01:08 PM »

But where will I park?!

tazio · « **Reply #26 on:** September 20, 2024, 07:26:23 AM »

WAYNE,
Is the GGR (Great Guzzi Ride) still on for Saturday morning?
Lift off 9am (or shortly thereafter)?
Just working out my day plan as I won't be leaving from Acworth much before Nautical Twilight.

I recall the bike race from last year. That was painful.
