Fingers crossed for you Brian. That would be a great first ride for her if she will go. I bet the more she rides the more she'll like it on that cush Ultra of yours. I LOVE that photo of her on your bike. She's VERY attractive.

I think we're going to head out Hwy. 16 from Newnan, through Griffin and over to Jackson and so forth. Should be a pretty ride. Guess I'm going to have to call the Whistlestop to see if I can get a reservation in as they haven't responded to my email.

I just called The Whistle Stop Cafe and they do not take reservations on the weekend. On a Sunday, their traffic really picks up when Church lets out, so I'm thinking we're going to want to be there by 11:30 a.m. if we don't want to wait; 12:00 Noon at the latest.

BTW Peeps, we should meetup at the Waffle House at Exit 41 off of I-85 South as Great South HD is closed on Sundays. Just turn right off the exit ramp and it's just up on your left.
