Meeting Recap--August 27, 2016

Nine of us met this Saturday morning to lay out plans for the coming months and to travel vicariously to Alpine passes via Richards recounting of his recent trip through the Alps in (not on) a BMW M3.

Richard had a packet of maps, souvenirs and video/photos from the trip to share with us. A commercial video of one of the passes allowed Richard to highlight some of the areas he went through on the week long trip that touched a number of countries  that share the high country. Here's the video 

Thanks for the trip Richard.

We discussed a ride plan for September. What we settled on was a ride on September 10th that heads north to Tennessee to travel beside the Ocoee and Hiawassee river and takes in the Chilhowee area and perhaps Buck Bald. The ride will start at 8:30 from the Chevron station at exit 27 of I-575. More details later as the date approaches.

We also discussed an overnight ride/camp Friday afternoon and Saturday (October 21-22) with camping at TWO Friday night. Set the dates aside, it should be a great time to be in the mountains. More details at our September meeting that will be on September 24th.
