I think there is enough intrest to do this thing. I'm sure with all the WW in the area plus their WW friends the tournout would be pretty good. I can't wait to see all these fine pieces of machinery meeting together.

Are we going to get together and do a ride or what???

What are the details as to where and when exactly we are meeting?

I can help put this thing together as well seeing as how i'm in the area.

Well I am in for sure and Juan you can have the guestroom in my house. As for what is served for breakfast, I do not plan that far ahead. :-)
We should certainly plan a ride and my thought was to do that during the Brasstown Bald stage. It would give as a great workout plus we can see the action on the course in at least two different spots. Plus as I have said we would want to do a factory tour for all who are interested. Maybe on Friday, the day after the TT stage or on Wednesday which would be the day before.

Cheers,
Herbert

I would recomend taking that factory tour Herbert has mentioned. I did it once and was very impressed.

Agreed.

If you get a definite time and place to meet, please post it as I will try to be there as I have been reading this forum for years and would like to meet some of the people with the same interest (the lightest bike you can afford) as me. I live in Missouri and it is not that far of a trip.

I just want to go climbing!! :) This sounds like a great time, I am very excited as it is only a few hours worth of driving for me. I have also told my gf at least 8 times about how much I want to ride the area (last three years we have visited Naples four times, this equates to driving through there 8 times!

Sounds great. I'd love to get together but it depends on the date for me too. Also, might be able to have a couple of friends tag along. Might need a van at the bottom of Brasstown Bald for us "non climbers". :lol:

I may be in Georgia for the TDG, if so, I'd love to see some cool builds and meet some like minded folks, so count me in.

Has there been any other talk on a jersey? If so it would be nice to pick one up while there. Just a thought.

Because I am 40 miles from them I will call Zipp today and see if I can't get them to kick in a bit, would be great to demo a few wheels (and let people see what their bike wieghs with a 900 gram wheelset!)
