250cc Meet In Franklin GA

[Badbob]

Folks I have received enough responses to make this a re ALity!!! The dates will be Aug 17-19 with the ride being on the Aug 18. Here are the ride details: We will have breakfast in Franklin at the village Inn, visit the Custom cycle shop, and head out some back roads to Wedowee AL. From Wedowee we will hit hwy 48 to Lineville AL. In Lineville we will get on hwy 49 and ride it up to hwy 281 which takes us to the highest point in Bama which is Cheaha Mountain. After we tour the roads on the mountain we will return to 281 and head north toward Heflin AL. Near Heflin we pick up 78 for a short while and turn onto hwy 9 to Centre AL and Cedar Bluff AL. At Cedar Bluff we stay on Hwy 9 to Gaylesville. From Gaylesville we take hwy 35 to hwy 15 and ride around the rim of the Little River Canyon. It is approximately 15 miles around the canyon and somewhere in those 15 miles we will turn down into the canyon and check out the River. There will be rest stops and refreshment stops Along the whole route. This is Approximately a 165 mile round trip ride. If this is too short we could ride on up to Desoto Falls which tacks on another 20-25 miles. If it is too far I know a shorter way home. On the way back we will stop at Butner's mill for a seafood feast. It is 16.00 per head or you can order off the menu (steaks ,chicken ,hamburger etc).

I'm planning to go work permitting as is one other GZ rider I know of. It would be very nice to have a bunch of GZ250s show up for this and not leave us surrounded by Honda Rebels. I'm some what familiar with this area and expect it to be a very nice ride.
