Triumphrat

Scot03Bonnie · 07-14-2006

Who: Anyone riding a Triumph twin, any year
What: Hang out, have lunch, talk bikes, then ride.
When: Saturday July 22 2006, at 1130am
Where: Big Bear CafÃ©, 893 Main St SW, Gainesville, GA
Why: Because Chad, the owner of Big Bear CafÃ©, rides a New Bonnie. And because we couldnâ€™t think of anything else to doâ€¦..

Big Bear CafÃ© is well known for its great BBQ and other down-home cooking. They also serve a great breakfast. It is located at the corner of Main St SW and Industrial Way in Gainesville, GA across from the railroad station.

As far as riding is concerned, my loose plan is to meet at the cafÃ©, have lunch and hang for awhile, then spend the afternoon riding, probably up to Cornelia, up 197 by Lake Burton, then back down into Helen, then up 17 to 180, across to Suches, then south on 60 and head homeward.

I live in the Acworth/Kennesaw area and would be happy to meet up somewhere with anyone who wants to ride together to Gainesville.

***** I would totally be into that, but I already have something planned that day......sunday would be much better.....

I would love to do this as well but most likely cannot. I was supposed to have my bike in the shop this weekend (upgrades) but now it will be late next week getting it into the shop and I will not have it back til' sometime Sat.

If I get it back beforehand I am up for it.

Thanks for the posting, great idea.

Scott03bonnie and bonefide will be meeting me at the waffle house parking lot on GA 20 and East Cherokee Drive at 10:15 am on the 22nd for the ride up to big bear for those interested in meeting there rather than Kennesaw. We'll be heading out GA 20 to 369 to Yellow Creek rd then GA53 into gainsville for anyone who like to pick us up on that route.

Hey guys
Looks like as of now we'll have one other rider meeting us at that BP on Wade Green, Ratlanta guy James on a Thrux and is coming from Buckhead. On the NTBF forum, I talked to Porter up by Rome, said he would see us at the Big Bear, I invited to him ride with us over there, but he hasn't replied yet. There are at least two other Bonnies one NTBF'r named Paul from Dahlonega and Rick, a Ratlanta rider out of Lawrenceville that will also join us at Big Bear. We pick up John on Hwy 20, so that makes at least 8 of us comitted so far.
Bud, I'll see you and anyone else that wants to join up with us at the BP at 0945 this Sat.
