OK V owners we are going to have a meet in Knoxville, TN on Saturday May 23, 2009 at 10am/11am. I would think meeting in Alcoha/Maryville would be best. Where did we meet last time Chris?? We are planning to drive the world famous Dragon's Tail, Cherohala Skyway, and down into Deal's Gap. If you are from that area you know how great the drives are into the East TN Smokey Mountains. Pray for good weather!!

I hope we can get a lot of Vs out for this meet!!! More updates to come when time gets closer!!!

Drive thru the mountains, I'm in :thumbsup:
Know any good hotels we can spend Friday night in?

 

[DRKSIDE]

Last time we met at Chili's. May I suggest Buffalo Wild Wings this time? Right next to Chili's so it will be easy to find. Just go to www.buffalowildwings.com and look for the Alcoa, TN location. You can get directions with Google maps.

Looking forward to it! I say we make it an all day event! Go up the Foothills Parkway... turn left at the lake and head up the Dragon... turn right on the Skyway and head back into Vonore and then back up to Maryville! What a great drive!!! Hope for sunny skies!

ATLDon-I do not live in the knoxville area and will be driving down from VA, however hotels.com can give you accurate ratings on hotels with locations..

Not that I care because I can't make it, but just thought it was funny:thumbsup:

Damnit. I'd be there in a heartbeat, but my daughter's getting baptized on Saturday. Have fun guys. If you're looking for a great place to eat in maryville for dinner, check out the Foothills Milling Company in downtown Maryville. It's a smallish fairly nice restaurant with dinamite food.

I plan on making it!!

Kirk... PM me your phone #. I can't find it. I am hoping you'll let me follow you from Morristown since I am not at all familiar with Knoxville.

That is a killer establishment! Best food in town for sure. I go there 5 or 6 times a year. I don't think they do lunch though. Glad to see there is someone else who isn't afraid to spend $60 on lunch in these times but it might be a bit much considering the tank of gas we are going to run through.

woops!! haha

OK let's meet at BWs

Hey! Great idea Cowan! :thumbsup:

Saturday in late May, most likely troopers. Look out for bikes also. Note gouges in pavement from bike foot rest pegs. Have a blast!
