Midwayav8r- you going to the shop up in Bristol that has tons of helicopters? We rode with a guy from that shop to DC for a ride to The Wall. His name escapes me right now. It was 2002. He's a good friend of a good friend down here and they were in 'Nam together. That made the ride to The Wall very special. Very cool place. I even have a few pics from there. Had the new at the time Bell 429. Sweet! |

That would be correct, it's Edwards and Assoc. They do all the major maintenance on our L4, unfortunately I have an excluder on the red blade throwing grease and it has to be fixed this week. But, I've checked out the sectional and I think I can find Suches on the way back!! Wish I could be there on the ground. Smoke: I used to fly for Air Logistics, I see you are in LA. Odie, have fun then get back to AL and make my pipe. I'm as excited as the little boy in the Disney commercial. Finally my bike will sound like something other than a Oreck. |

You can't miss Suches. Looks just like this, only with about 50 Buells running around

Paint_shaker....I'm sure you can set camp. You can meet at the SMHD/Buell if you want around 6:00ISH. It is about 1.5 hrs from TWO. A group usually rides from there to the "V". I myself won't be making it. I have too many things to do before we depart Friday morning. Glitch wants to go to the "V". Maybe he will chime in and you can get with him on going down there. |

Well, I'm embarrased to say that I couldn't find Suches. I flew all around Dahlonaga today, but no Buells . So we had to leave and get fuel at Athens and continue to Savannah. Maybe next year. |

Thanks to the 3%er's and all involved in making this weekend memorable. It was a great getaway along with having the opportunity to meet fellow Buellers. I think you will see more of the C3 group for next year's March Badness. Thanks for a job well done. Kristi & Carlos (M2nc) PS - Carlos says thanks for the guided tour on Wolf Pen Gap Road! |

Had a great time with you Paint (Laird) and your running buddy with the duct tape stripes on his 636. I hope he doesn't catch too much hell. He had me rolling when he told me he just gave his daughter a hard time about smashing the family van. What the hell was the name of that place in Dahlonega? I'm brushing up on Susie Q for next year. The local talent was stunning after the 5th beer... |
