Holla holla if you have time to stop in E. TN- Deal's Gap is about 25 hot ride minutes away on the Buell. Unfortunately, at this writing I have nothing operational/ready to ride. Got a futon inside where it's warm. | ||

If you're staying for a few months, you definitely need to keep up with the new "April Buells Day" thread. When you get to the Chattanooga area and want to ride, just let me know. | ||
| Whatever |
Um. You Suck!  Take Me With You? | ||
| Etennuly |
You might need tire studs the way this winter is shaping up!  If you end up to the right of Knoxville let me know. It is a bit off from your path. | ||
| Piotr12 |
If you need to make a stop in Saint Louis let me know! Maybe I can tag along for the ride... | ||

two hrs south of gainesville if you decide to go any further south. in the middle of construction and if nothing else got a sofa bed that ain't really that bad. roads not that fun but there's hardly a day that you can't ride. more than welcome if your interested. | ||
| Ft_bstrd |
Come see me! What day/time you gonna be here? | ||

This is just a guess, but i don't think Tim will be on his bike. I could be wrong though!  | ||
| Tepiddeath |
unfortunately I am Ft Lauderdale FL, but if you happen to make it this far south, I have a couch with pull out sofa, a homemade meal, and some fun roads-when it isn't rush hour! | ||
| Redbuelljunkie |
One hour east on I-10 to Jacksonville gets you a free place to stay, a hot meal, and Amsoil on the house if it's time for a change... | ||

if you head north for some odd reason let me know  | ||

nope i will be hauling the bikes down for the winter. i cant ride all of them there!! and haul as much stuff as i will need for my extended stay... and fats i already figured id stop and see ya, maybe barker if he's around too since i will be going right through town basically. as far as april buells day, it depends on how long i am there. supposedly i will have a job to come back to in the spring. but i needed something to do so i dont go nuts around here so i guess i'll head that way and work...

Tim, You just announced to the world that your Buellfull house will be vacant for awhile. Maybe I'll stop by and ride a couple of them while you're gone! | ||

Tim, Give me a shout when you get ii Florida. I am about an hour south of Gainesville. I'll get you on some of the only curves in Florida. If you bring your track day gear, I'll see if I can swing a trackday at Jennings or... If there is some racing going on while your down here, perhaps you'd care to join in? | ||

If you bring your track day gear, I'll see if I can swing a trackday at Jennings or... If there is some racing going on while your down here, perhaps you'd care to join in? i figured i'd probably run into you when you visited the shop. paul already hit me up about running monday trackdays at jennings! of course im gonna bring my gear!!! id love to go racing but i havent managed to take the classes to get my license yet. hope to before next season atleast. |
