Title: Re-run of RFTH and Cruising In The Mountains.
Post by: Fierofool on September 27, 2011, 09:57:10 am: Would like to know who will be going on a partial rerun of RFTH 16 and some laid back cruising in the mountains on October 15. We can hit part of the RFTH route and cruise some new roads. Just spending the day without any particular schedule, other than a starting time. Stopping at scenic areas and eat when the stomach tells us to.

Post by: HarryT on September 27, 2011, 01:56:13 pm: We are planning on being there.
By the way, I should now be a member. I paypaled for my membership a few days ago.

Post by: CowsPatoot on September 28, 2011, 03:27:08 am: I am trying to decide if I can justify coming down for this mini-run or not. I can justify the gas money...but I would have to leave in the wee hours of the morning to meet up with you. How early are you looking at getting started?

Edit: Cancel that...just remembered I have other obligations on the 15th. Bummer.

Clayton, Ga. Ingles Shopping Center Parking Lot, corner of Warwoman Road and US 441, 9-10 AM, October 15, unless it's raining. A day of leaf-looking, twisting and turning, sightseeing and eating. We may end up getting back near Oh-Dark-Thirty.

Post by: Fierofool on October 10, 2011, 10:49:13 am: Edited to change the meeting place. We'll meet at the Burger King parking lot next to the Days Inn.

The weather forecast is for a sunny day with temps in the mid 70's. This would be a good couples or parent-child excursion. Colors should be great, so bring your cameras.

Post by: GrannyLinda on October 10, 2011, 01:32:11 pm: Pat and I are going up the night before.
We are getting away for the weekend.

Post by: HarryT on October 14, 2011, 09:57:57 pm: Charlie;
We won't be able to be at Burger King by 1oAM. Where are you planning on stopping for lunch? We will meet you there if you have a location.
At the club meeting you said part of the run would be on 256. Did you mean 276 in NC? We can't find a 256.
Harry

PS I put my new Rodney clutch slave cylinder in today. I took it for a short spin, it feels like a different car. Now you can't say that I am shiftless.

Post by: Fierofool on October 14, 2011, 11:29:51 pm: I didn't have any particular place planned for lunch. I just thought we'd stop if we got hungry or saw a good place. We're taking the first part of the RFTH out of Clayton up to Cashiers, so we should be there around 11. The highway I meant was 215, but that will be on into the afternoon before we get there. You can call me at six seven eight 467 one seven 4 two to let me know where you are as you come up.

Post by: GrannyLinda on October 14, 2011, 11:40:58 pm: Pat and I are in Clayton.
The weather is supposed to be totally awesome tomorrow.
We will see everybody tomorrow morning.
Drive carefully.

Post by: Fierofool on October 15, 2011, 07:24:48 pm: I did see a camera clicking a couple of times. I'll bring video, tomorrow. It was a beautiful cloudless shirt sleeve day and the leaves were close to full color. Traffic wasn't too bad on the major roads, but when we got off in the back hills, it was non-existent. We had the roads to ourselves The only thing there were curves. Lots and lots of curves. Second gear curves. I think one of the new roads we took today may rival The Dragon for number and frequency of turns. It was very strange to be coming into a sharp left curve and see the road below you on the right.

Title: Re: Re-run of RFTH and Cruising In The Mountains.
Post by: Fierofool on October 16, 2011, 08:54:54 am: Harry, Karin, Pat, Linda, Don, and me. I spoke with Jerry about 7:30 and he was on his way. He never showed up and hasn't answered his phone or voice mail since. I'm a bit concerned. Don't know if something happened to him.
Title: Re: Re-run of RFTH and Cruising In The Mountains.
Post by: Fiero GTB on October 16, 2011, 01:51:39 pm: Looks like it was a beautiful day. I've been off with some sort of Martian space fungus in my sinuses since Thursday night.

I sure hope Jerry's okay!

Let me know if I can help track him down in some way? Making phone calls, or maybe I live closer, and could go by his place or something???

Post by: Fierofool on October 17, 2011, 05:18:12 pm: Jerry's OK. He called me this afternoon. As he got near I-985, he decided to just go on home in Charlotte. He had originally planned to run with us, then go from the Rosman, NC area. After he made the decision to go straight home, he discovered he had left his phone back in Atlanta and had no phone numbers or way to contact us to let us know. He's back to Atlanta now and is well.

Post by: Fiero GTB on October 17, 2011, 08:20:48 pm: Jerry:

Young man, don't you EVER scare us like that again!

You could have been trapped in a burning car, lying in a pool of blood and oil, kidnapped by pirates, goodness knows what!

Do that again, and we're confiscating your Fiero and forcing you to drive an MR2 for a MONTH, mister!
