Title: Vintage-Friendly Ride Huntsville to Lyrnchburg, TN this Saturday, July 1st
Post by: renchinrider on June 26, 2017, 09:25:26 PM
Hi, Everyone!

The North Alabama Vintage Motorcycle Club is going to ride up to Lynchburg, TN Saturday (Jul 1) right after our breakfast at the Blue Plate Cafe II on S. Memorial Parkway.

We'll depart the Blue Plate ~0930 on Saturday morning.  We'll cross the mountains between Huntsville and Gurley.  Once we hit US 72, we'll get onto AL 65 and head north to Huntland, TN.  We'll stop there for gas and rest stop, and then head on north to Lynchburg for lunch and a stroll around the square.

All bikes are welcome, but we'll pace the ride so that the older bikes and those with small engines can keep up.  So come on out and join us for a fun ride!

I'll post a tentative weather call Friday eve, and we'll make the final call at breakfast Saturday morning.

See you there!

Sure wish you could join us tomorrow, Johnny!  Would love to have you lead us on this route from Huntland to Lynchburg.  I don't know the roads as well, so the route I'm planning is a little simpler (unless I have a volunteer step forward who knows the route you posted...(fingers crossed!!!)  ::)
