"Dawsonville GA" One place I loved to drive was HWY 53, HWY 52, Or HWY 136 from East to West and back, Between GA 400 and I-75 SO AWESOME curves and beautiful mountain views.. I always ended my drive with going up and down the Amicaloa Falls. http://gastateparks.org/georgia/parks/images/ga/amicalo.gif If this is going to be done between April 3 - april 10.. Let me know..

Joe jaredpharmd 01-19-2010, 02:09 PM I am putting in a request for vacation right now for April 10th. I'll be there! Sounds like this is going to be a big turn out. There are going to be a Lot of happy Gas Stations Lol! How'd the drive go, Joe? Jared jaredpharmd 01-19-2010, 02:15 PM Or I could read your earlier post....sorry. Have fun on the drive. Jared BLACKBEAUTY 01-20-2010, 04:51 AM OK Couldn't do the drive Sunday, Soooooooo we are going this Saturday. Here's a preview at what we will be looking at this Saturday. 1)Toccoa Falls 2)Tallulah Falls 3)Helen Russell-Brasstown Scenic Byway which we pick up outside of Helen and is 38 miles through the mountains with several falls and overlooks along the way. 4)Brass Town Bald (tallest peak in GA.) We will probably meet up with Shane and the SC Chapter in Lavonia off I85. This is so far what I will be looking at, timing all the stops and looking for a place for lunch. Probably back in Helen. If it looks good and we have more time we will probably go further west towards Amicalola Falls as I think Bullish suggested. Anyway this is what I mapped out so far...... Joe Jettech104 01-20-2010, 06:27 AM If the weather is nice saturday and you need another scout let me know. It would be a nice ride to preview before april 10th.:smileup: Mopar 01-20-2010, 02:04 PM OK Couldn't do the drive Sunday, Soooooooo we are going this Saturday.

Joe Joe this really sounds like a awesome ride thanks for your effort on this and can not wait for the final details and the meeting place sounds good also. Bullish 01-20-2010, 04:44 PM That sounds great.. If we are the Best then we need to be at the highest point possible... 4)Brass Town Bald (tallest peak in GA.) has my vote.. BLACKBEAUTY 01-20-2010, 07:23 PM If the weather is nice saturday and you need another scout let me know. It would be a nice ride to preview before april 10th.:smileup: Hey Bro call me if you want to go! Joe this really sounds like a awesome ride thanks for your effort on this and can not wait for the final details and the meeting place sounds good also. No problem Shane... Anything for my Mopar Brothers and Sisters. That sounds great.. If we are the Best then we need to be at the highest point possible... 4)Brass Town Bald (tallest peak in GA.) has my vote.. You said it! I hope we can get up the mountain this Sat. weather looks good so far. Joe Jettech104 01-21-2010, 02:02 AM I will let you know!! Gotta see how the weather is going to be for this saturday!!:smileup: BLACKBEAUTY 01-26-2010, 04:20 PM Sorry I havn't posted earlier. Working like crazy. We did Toccoa falls and Tallulah Falls. It took me 1 hour 45 minutes to get to lavonia doing speed limit. Theres a race track right off the exit we can meet at. From there we went on to Toccoa Falls. About 20-25 minutes. I'll send some pics to Eddie and Shane. Don't want to post them here. From there went on to Tallulah Falls. About the same time wise to get there. There's a overlook along the road you can see the gorge and river. To view the falls you have to enter the park.And of course it's $5.00 to park. Don't think we want to do that. Me and Theresa went in to scout it out. A lot of walking to actually view the falls and there are several in that gorge. It's very nice but to much time spent in there to see the falls. On a good note Georgia Power is releasing water from the Dam on April 10 so the river and rapids should be more of a sight then it was on Saturday. That's it so far. We left Kennesaw at 9:15 in the morning and got back at 6:00 PM. Of course we asked questions at each spot and Tallulah falls we spent way to much time there. And we didn't know where we were going so that's why it took so long. We will head back the week after next to hit Helen and Brass Town Bald along the scenic byway. Joe Jettech104 01-26-2010, 06:18 PM Sounds good Joe!! Sorry I didn't go the weather was questionable plus I forgot that I had to work friday night. I should have called you anyway and let you know!!!:doh: Thanks for your hard work we all appericate it!!!:smileup: Mopar 01-26-2010, 06:20 PM Sorry I havn't posted earlier. Working like crazy.

Joe Joe I know exactly how you feel bro scouting out a good route to take with a group,it is work and a LOT of time. With that said I personally want to THANK YOU for your efforts and time you are putting into this ride,not to mention the expense you are taking on.Really Thanks!!!!! I look forward to April the 10th and I know we are going to have a blast.... Bullish 01-26-2010, 07:53 PM Thank you for your efforts.. Sound like you got a REAL Nice set up for us.. Looking forward to it.. jaredpharmd 01-27-2010, 03:57 AM Looks like the ride will be great. Thanks for wasting all of that gas for us! Any ideas on food along the routes? What about saving some moolah and eating at one of the parks? $5 is pretty cheap, and it would give us an area where we could all meet? -Jared BLACKBEAUTY 01-30-2010, 03:55 AM That's something to think about...... Next week I was going to scout places for lunch. Joe Bullish 02-22-2010, 02:54 PM Hello every one..
