rallispec Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Shit too bad i just read this tread today. I would love to come but i am thinking i will be way to hung over to wanna deal with it. Just in case i dont drink tonight how long is the loop in total trip time and who is running up 81 because harrisonburg is right along the way and would be a perfect spot to meet up. If i come is ok for me to bring the Camaro or can i only bring the LGT. Also i know its a late suggestion but one time we all need to roll down to rt 56. Best road ever for slow fun turns besides maybe the dragons tail. I will post later on tonight if i am in or not. c'mon.. you should join us -- how many chances do you get to do something like this? where is 56?

PGT Posted August 5, 2006 Author Share Posted August 5, 2006 I'd say 4-6 hours for the loop and lunch. No hurry....I've got nowhere to be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTsullyman Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 56 is off of 29 when heading towards appamottox. I am still split on what to do. I could stop drinking now and come but i dont know. Is this a lazy cruise or a fun drive? 2007 DGM LGT 2003 Suzuki SV650S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PGT Posted August 5, 2006 Author Share Posted August 5, 2006 we're meeting around 9:15, figuring the stragglers will delay us and we'll all stand around checking out rides for a bit. As for pace.....it's a rally....not a time trial. Anybody that wants to drive ahead and push is welcome to, but do so are your own risk. Someone got a ticket last year and we'd like to avoid that this time. absolutely no asshattery allowed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PGT Posted August 5, 2006 Author Share Posted August 5, 2006 I hope to do something similar more often. Install days are fun, but a rally is more fun still. I ran the mileage....plan on 120 miles until lunch at Spelunkers (figure 2.5-3 hours), which puts us having big, juicy burgers around 1pm. Anywhere from 45 to 60 miles home from there for Nova peeps.

PGT Posted August 5, 2006 Author Share Posted August 5, 2006 15N to the Bypass (as in towards the Outlet Mall). One light past the mall is Evans Ford Rd - take a right. The Starbucks sits in behind the gas station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PGT Posted August 7, 2006 Author Share Posted August 7, 2006 Whew! We are beat. About a 15 hour day Saturday....we went for another loop through Fort Valley, then out to Edinburg. Got delayed by Fire and EMS as a Harley rider didn't quite make it around a turn with a large drop-off to the outside Then, back to our place for some dinner. I think M and I got to bed around 1am. We slept most of yesterday. Glad we had a good turnout this year and no tickets! Yeah yeah...I should have driven faster, but I was in the lead and I'm due for a ticket - every three years it seems I get one and I'm about 3 months late on that schedule now. I'll get some pics up tonight...I haven't even felt like looking at them to be honest. Think I'm getting old or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
