Jeff Geisen is hosting a ride day Saturday before the banquet and Sunday after the banquet. BYOB (bring your own bike).

Brock, please be more specific.

Do shivs and zipguns count?

What about mace, slingshots, brass knuckles, tire irons, baseball bats, pikes, cat-o-nine-tails, fisticuffs, chainsaws, on so on?

I always try to operate within the rules.

I just like to know the rules.

See you there.

The ride Saturday will be at my home, all stadium/man made obstacles, on 4 acres.

My home is a few minutes from the BBQ Street restaurant. Simply follow the directions to the restaurant with the exeption of the left turn on Henderson Dr.
Continue west on West Ave./Ga. 113, then turn right at the McDonalds/Burnt Hickory Rd. traffic signal. My place is on the right 1/2 mile past the the first signal you pass on Burnt Hickory Rd. at Mission Rd., my address is 969 Burnt Hickory Rd. You will see the pasture with the obstacles on your right. I will have a sign at the roadside to catch your eye. Please arrive no earlier than 9:00am.

Call 678 431-2796 with questions.

We will not be out at Ian's property on Ga. Hwy 20 at all till Sunday.

See you all this weekend

Thanks Ron!!!

OK STRA members and thrill seekers - you can see the 35th Anniversary banquet is something NOT TO BE MISSED! Lots of awards, door prizes and suprizes!
(And folks not at the Business Meeting typically get elected to something, so you may want to keep that in mind too!)

See you Saturday!

Ron: will have an new Evo at the banquet?

That bike is generating a lot of interest world wide and Alexz Wigg recently signed with Beta for 2009.

I am anxious to check one out!

If anyone wants to ride a little earlier Saturday, you are welcome at my property. I am 15 minutes east of Cartersville on hwy 20 in Canton.
Plan to start around 9:00.
Not sure if it is ok to ride at Ian's property on Ga. Hwy 20 Saturday?

Hey Guys and Gals We will have a 290 Evo at the banquet and it will be available at the riding area in cartersville on sunday for test rides.. Ron III will be at the riding area with the bike all day sunday.. My Best..

...I have cleared my obligations for Saturday morning, so anyone that wants to ride just a mile from the banquet/business meeting location is welcome anytime. I will have a bon fire going early, look for our cargo trailer in the pasture, and a yellow STRA sign at the shoulder on Burnt Hicory Rd.

About Ian's property on Saturday, neither he nor I will be up there Saturday, so if you have any issues with the neighbors or the property owner between Ian and the highway you are on your own! If trouble arises you will put our good relationship with the people there at risk.

Jeff,

How about Sunday at Ians place? Is that still on?

Yes it is, we just ask anyone that arrives out there before us to park off to either side of the drive so a lane is left open. Also, please do not ride or drive beyond the chain link gate even though it will be open. Ride into the property on the road on the right just before the gate. Please do not ride west of the new paved road on the west side of the property, stick to the top of the ridge and the powerline.
