So is it that all of 176 is badly surfaced, or just the 148/275 section?

Just the 148/275 section. And As I understand what is being said about Mt Cheaha they did the same ting to a road there. :angry2:

 

[Grievous Angel]

Time and place? 29 dreams? When?

If it looks like a good chance of rain, I'm out. I'll chance 20% though.

 

[Scab]

Yeah, I have to prep these folks around here for my early departure on friday. Somebody lock it down. Where's fencer? Maybe his boss won't let him off friday. I understand his boss is a real ***.

 

[Fencer]

I understand his boss is a real ***.

That *** is so big all you see is "crack"

8:30 a good time to meet at 29 Dreams?

move it up? back?

 

[Scab]

I thought Groo needed a more "afternoon" time. Personally, I'm easy.

I'd planned on taking the day off . . any time is good for me. I'm riding in from T-Town, so I'm at LEAST 1 hour away. So not TOO early. But 8:30 is fine.

I got a last minute offer to go to Daytona for Biketoberfest . . I may do that (so that would be a conflict with this), but I'll post it here either way.

[Grievous Angel]

Hey guys. I'm going to Biketoberfest in Daytona, so I'm out for this weekend.

 

[HC3]

Any chance of meeting up with you guys somewhere around 12:30 or 1:00pm. Can't take the whole day off but the afternoon should be no problem. B)

 

[Groo]

I don't "need" a more afternoon time... but the guy I'm riding with wants to check out AL 176... I'm trying to see if he's willing to ride to 29 Dreams too. May have to play it by ear. If I can make it, the morning arrival time is fine.

 

[jwilly]

Groo, We could meet somewhere more North instead of at 29 Dreams if that works better for you. Scab and Fencer do you guys have an idea where we could meet further north?

[NoCage]

I will be out of town Friday, leaving Thursday afternoon... so I won't be there. Fickle ******* ain't I? Have fun and take pics.

Well groo we could all crash your hotel. :lol: pick a time

You will need to tell us (post) your location if you go this route

29 is only about 15-20 min from Irondale depending on the hotel you chose

You are the guest so you choose

Little River Canyon is about a hour and a half from your location. Willy we could pick you up in Gadsden.

 

[Groo]

Per post #7 in this thread, the Hampton Inn in East Irondale (or at least it was... they're not associated with the Hampton Inn chain anymore... not sure what they're called now).

 

[Scab]

Alright, already! Somebody nail down the rendevous spot and time. Don't make me get my hammer.

 

[jwilly]

If it works for you guys lets just meet at Groo's hotel in Irondale in the morning. Let me know what time you guys want to meet and I will be there.

HC3: I will drop you a PM with my cell number, you can call when your available and I will let you know where we are.

Questions, Comments?
