I will drive by the Atlanta Airport on both Thursday and Sunday. I'm a friendly redneck and don't own a banjo.

Please share your thoughts. This is not a personal thing or a controlled event - all are welcome to attend and also to help put it together...

Thanks!

I think it's great that you guys are having the event in the south. There are not nearly as many cruisers in your neck of the woods as other places, so to see you pull it off is awesome.

Big props!

I'd love to come join you guys sometime!!!!

Georg @ Valley Hybrids & Cruiser Brothers

Thanks for the kind words.

I'm not here to piss in your Cheerios Charles. Have your event and it will be a success. Guaranteed.

I was at the first one and enjoyed it immensely.

That said, something centralized in the US would make this event a destination and part of a much nicer, grander tour.

And something west of the MS as opposed to the mosquito/humidity infested South.

Onur,
Looking forward to you and Ward's efforts/leadership in pulling together what may actually turn out to be the 2018 Meet-n-Greet. Luckily for me I don't have any dislike for any portion of this great nation, but the logistics/distance/event timing of some venues are very likely to define my ability to attend. I will be following all plans with keen interest.

Onur -
I am old but gritty. Let's make it happen!

Considering the impressive number of 70 Series west of the Mississippi, a "meet and greet" similar to what we are trying in East Tennessee, should be very impressive. Good luck with the planning and I look forward to seeing the results.
