Atlanta - North GA ride week of 12/13-12/19
I'd like to take a ride up to Cloud Canyon or Little River (AL) sometime next week if the weather is nice. Any north GA people interested in going or does anyone know of good routes up that way?

Id be on for a ride if the weather is nice. Keep us posted on which day as it gets closer. As of today it is looking kinda chilly BUT if going to Cloudland Canyon, I recommend 136. Its a fun road with good mixes of twistys and beautiful views.
Depending on time and such, I suggest whatever road you wish up to Resaca, GA. Then 136 to Cloudland Canyon and past to 73 which is a few miles in Alabama. North on 73 in AL to 156. 156 into TN to 64. Then either 11 south OR you can go thru Look Out Mtn in Chattanooga south on 189/157 back down to 136. Then 136 to whatever road you wanna take back to Atlanta. |

Hey guys, or gals-- I have a few questions for you if you don't mind:
1) Those of you around the Dekalb, Gwinnett area where do you normally ride? 2) How long have you been riding? 3) Have you ever ridden with someone from this site that you didn't know before? 4) If you don't use your bike to commute, how often do you get together with others to ride. Thanks - Shell

Hey Shell,
1. I currently live in Hall County and only 15-30 minutes or so from some of the best roads GA has to offer but am moving to Buford this month so I am interested as to what others have to say and so so so sad to be moving away from some super twisty roads. 2. I have only been riding for 2 years now. 3. I had the honor to meet up with a group from this site and every single one of those riders were super great people and safe riders. 4. I bought my NINJA as a strict commuter because my ride to work was 45MPH most of the way and my BUSA didnt enjoy that. I now will be riding Interstate 85 for most of my ride so my BUSA may be back into commute action. I have grown to love my NINJA for almost everything. She is nimble on twistys, easy to ride in slower traffic (except for the all the shifting), more comfortable, and well even MPG is better. To answer your question, I ride alone 90% of the time as most people seem to be always working or too busy. |

Tony,
Moving to Buford may not be a bad move. You'll be a little farther from the twisty roads, but I'm sure you'll find some interesting roads in the area pretty quickly if you avoid the main roads. When you decide to head back to your old stomping grounds you'll find 85, 985, and a bunch of state route to get you there in no time. I also think you'll be closer to others on this site that are in the area.

@LiquidShell
I have been riding for a year now and have met up with people from here including Tony. I commute and ride on the weekends a lot but haven't had the time to head to the mountains with them because work has been hectic. I'm in Sandy Springs so if you are close and the temps are reasonable (40s and up) I'll meet up with you and we can ride some decent local roads. I'll keep the speeds down to keep the ride beginner friendly. |

Vman1313, plenty of fun twisty roads around the Buford area.
Plus you will be closer to the lake, which is pretty much where everyone with a boat goes to party every weekend |

I've been riding less than a month > 135 miles. I live in the Brookhaven / Chamblee area. Would the Buford roads be too much for an noob like me. I'd like to ride with some experienced riders so I don't develop bad habits while riding on my own. this weekend would be great if anyone is available. I'm off FRI - SUN. Given enough notice, I can change my schedule to go riding. All I've been thinking about is the next ride.
