Remember it's not a Race.
Wait for the rider behind you.
Yes that means everyone.
If you know the route and write it down it won't matter though.

From my original post. Motel to be decided once I've had a chance to visit a few and get a rate. We've stayed in the Days Inn right at Warwoman Road it's decent with a Mexican restaurant on site . Also a quickie market and liquor store just across the street.With 10 rooms or better you should get them down to around $35.00 -$40.00 a night. |

Beautiful riding weather today. Gerbings in the morning and mesh jacket in the afternoon. Visited 4 motels. The Regal Inn is the kind of motel you use for one night on a cross country ride. Cheap and a tad dingy.  Americas Best Value Inn had really nice rooms but no exterior doors.  The thirds name escapes me but they wanted $89 a night.  So the final choice is ................................. The Days Inn 54 Hwy 441 North, Clayton, GA 30525 PHONE 706-782-4258 Please ask for a Britman's Ride room. There are 15 reserved so please go ahead and make your reservations. Room rate for a single or double is $62.10 plus tax includes continental breakfast The Days inn is conveniently located just north of Hwy 76/2 on Hwy 441 There is a B.P. gas station next door.

If you like HOT food ask for Shrimp Diablo. Coot had this a couple of years ago and really enjoyed it. He went beet red and had heat sweat beading his forehead for quite a while. Nah, that was just a little high blood pressure:) |
