The Two Wheel Inn just emailed me that they have 18 rooms available for the November 6th weekend (if we book all 18 we get 10% off). Interest is low so far probably due to the late date- just 3 so far.
Anyways, thought I'd bump the thread up for some more exposure.
Maybe we could take a small detour and visit Jake's shop in Cleveland, GA...

Regards,
mike

Mike, have fun and drive fast! Watch out for the LEO's. Remember to warm up the tires too, and the white lines are a little slippery (Dale Jr taught me this excuse!). Say hello to the Pickle girl.

Ahhh, the Pickle girl...
I might not notice her if she's wearing that camouflage top again.

If someone will take the initiative to schedule a place and time for lunch on Saturday the 7th, I will be heading home from Asheville with the wife and golden retriever in our BMW and would love to meet you all and enjoy a quick bite with you.

Since we're headed to Meridian, MS for the evening, I thought we could drive the Cherohala Skyway as it's heading kinda West-Southwest after lunch.

Anyone? Anyone? Beuller?

I'd hate to be in the area and not figure out how to see you guys while there!

I-40 closed

We just returned from the Smokey's, Asheville and the TAIL last weekend. Fantastic scenery and great drives. Check out ZEE Photo or Killboy.com for photos taken on the TAIL. These guys are out there just about everyday.

NOTE: I-40 is closed at MM3 NC near the Tenn and NC border due to major rock slide. It could be closed for several months.

Our self guided detour included Rt 209 north to Hot Springs, NC then 25/70 to Newport, TN. Another great drive. Rt 107 may be equally exciting.

Its amazing how much fun these roads are with the right car!

jdr,
Thanks for the heads up on the I-40 rock slide. I had heard about it but I hadn't checked to see if it was in the way for us on the way down. Must recalculate the route now which might end up being longer but looks like more twisty roads are involved.

Regards,
mike
