Brad, I have met you in person and you should get along just fine with 99.9% of the folks you meet at MBIV. Remember a lot of guys on the board are big in type but not in your face. dont let some bullspit on the net discourage you from the best riding you can have. Court, You coming?? You should! |

Come one down, Brad. Some people consider me nationalistic to a fault... I think we'd get along fine. Much like yourself, I've never owned anything but American cars and trucks in my life. The biggest assholes at the MB's I've been to was me, and I got along fine with everyone. You're covered, dude! |

Brad, don't tell me some internet chatter is going to spoil the fun for you and your wife. March Badness ain't about politics, or being politically correct. One thing the 3%ers ain't is politically correct, hell, we ain't political. Ride and let ride! |

Hey Brad....... just so you know, I haven't even read that other post and have no intentions on doing so. BUT if you want to lump me and the great group of folks that will be at MBIV into or associate us with the group of people that you disagree with in your post then beat it. I for one could care less if you do show up if that is the attitude that your going to have. But if you want to have a great time with a great group of people then please come on down. It will be a lot of fun for you and your wife. I will GUARANTEE IT or the beer is on me. I offer this guarantee for you and your wife only Well enough with this shit, let's stay focused people FOCUS MBIV MBIV MVIV |

Four weeks from tomorrow morning, I'll be getting on my Uly and heading South for a few days of Fun. I want to get an MB IV T-shirt, a Pocket T from Stone Mountain, a Deals Gap T from the store there. I want to ride on some really nice roads. I want to Demo a TT. I want to meet so many new people from this site that I can't keep their names and faces straight. I want to camp at TWO. I bet I get to meet all my wants. If not, it won't be because I didn't try. |

I've never met any of you guys in person, but I sure wanted to. Unfortunately, I have to ask that you cross my name off the list for this year. I've just got too many obligations between grad school and a job. Sucks. Now my plan is when I graduate, I'm quitting my job and NoBo thru-hiking the AT starting March 15th. I'll bring my bike along and store it somewhere nearby in GA so I can make a pitstop to ride with you guys at the next MB and resume my hike when I'm done. By the time the next MB rolls around, I'll be 2 weeks into my hike and plan to be about 200 miles north by that time, but I can hitch a ride back to my bike and meet you guys then. Good luck this year. |

What time are you guys leaving Suches? I have to be in Alpharetta for an update class at 5:00 pm on march 30th. Would love to ride up just for the day as I will be in class all weekend. |

"There is a glimmer of hope that I may still be able to go... DJ" That's Plan A, Laird. I'm working on Plan B. Plan C is me going solo. "What time are you guys leaving Suches?" I think the deal was kickstands up Friday at 9 AM, leaving from Suches for the Gap. Never been there myself, so I may not be the best guide, but I know how to read a map. Now I just gotta get a map. |

To get to Deals Gap from T.W.O. *the easy directions* Take HWY 60 south Take a left on to HWY 19 (The Rock Pile) Take a left on HWY 129 (Turners Corner) Take HWY 129 North until you're on the Dragon (Deals Gap) Edited to correct a wrong turn, thanks Charlie!

Damn, this is probably easier... From T.W.O. take Wolf Pen Gap (Hwy180) to Hwy 129, head north... |

I got bite marks from Wolf Pen Gap. I eventually pinned my cracked flyscreen on the Wall of Shame at TWO, and someone took it! |

Take a right on HWY 129 (Turners Corner) You will be headed south if you follow those directions! |

I'll give you a call or you will be able to hear me snoring in my tent. I just may need a nap after riding 500+ or - miles and you know I wont be able to sleep the night before I leave.............. |
