Title: Ride to High Falls Sunday 2-24-19
Post by: klaviator on February 23, 2019, 12:51:21 PM
High Falls should should have an Epic amount of water flowing over it.  Hopefully the roads won't be flooded on the way there but I'm going to give it a try.  If you want to join me here's the details.

Meeting place:  Shell station on 431& old 431 in New Hope.  Shell, 10260 Old Hwy 431, New Hope, AL 35760

Time:  Kick stands up at 10.  I'll be there by 9:45

If you are coming from the South I can set up a place to meet in Guntersville, let me know.

We'll probably stop for lunch at the South Sauty store.  Plans could change due to flooding and road conditions.  I do plan on stopping and taking some pictures.

Probably get there shortly after 11 and be there for around an hour or so.  That would be a bit of a ride for you but it would be good to see you after all these years.

Use extreme caution if you travel on Langston Gap Rd.

Hobbs Island Road is flooded near New Hope, with no bypass route. I also heard that Little Cove Road between Hampton Cove and Gurley is flooded.

I'm still recovering from knee surgery, so I'm not going to chance it since it's no where near 100% strength.  Looking forward to pics of the falls.  Be safe all!

Hey Don.  I'll be heading in your direction several times this year.  Are you going to March Moto Madness?
