Who rides an FZ6 in north Georgia? I'm located in Kennesaw, and like to take day trips in the mountains around Dahlonega, Suches, & Brasstown Bald Mountain. If you're interested in getting weekend rides together, drop a PM to me or a note in this thread and we'll get a pack of FZ6's together buzzing through the northern GA curves!

Hi guys,

I run around the north side of town as well, usually once every couple weeks. My routes include Hwy 129 up to Blairsville, Hwy 280 W/E depending, Hwy 60 and GA400/Hwy 19. I also run around closer to home, in the Braselton/Lawrenceville/Flowery Branch area. I ride with my cousin, he's on a F800 ST. Let's plan a run up into the mountains, maybe even a trip to the Tail. It's about 3-4 hrs. away from where I am...

I am not familiar with any of those areas, but being right near Chattanooga I'm not that far off, I think. I'd be game if I can squeeze it in to my schedule. Right now work is good, so I'm usually working Saturdays. Maybe I can talk my dad into a ride, if you're cool w/a Honda :) hehe

I need some new rubber before I make any long trips tho :( I'll try to keep an eye on this section to see what's goin on.

I'll be ready as soon as I get my new tires mounted. After the weekend at Deals Gap with the FZ6-Forum meet it was great meeting other fz6 riders and I'm ready to go again.

Oh yes, the ride was great..and those tar snakes made some of the curves a little more challenging than normal. I really loved that section of 60 from Suches to hwy 515.

Hey all...I live in Dunwoody for the next month or so, then moving to Kennesaw closer to work. I grew up driving from ATL to Hiawassee, which is just on the other side of those lovely N. Ga Mountains. Haven't been up there as much since my grandmother passed...she was my reason for going up that way...but I've still got some family to visit and bum a place to stay.

I'm always up for a weekend ride up in the mtns, the earlier the start the better as it's getting effing hot. I've got some buddies around here on R6's, Sportsters and some others. Keep me in the loop if you're ever headed that way and we'll make a nice group ride out of it.

My normal route was to come up 400, bypass Dahlonega and Cleveland and backroad on some twisties up to the north side of Helen...cross the mountain and then cut over on 180 to Blood Mtn, making the loop back down to Dahlonega and back to 400. All in all about a 3-4 hour ride depending on breaks and traffic. Looking at going for a several day ride with a buddy of mine in late July...maybe camp out Sat night and cover most of N.Ga.

Looking forward to riding with you guys!:rockon:

A buddy of mine on SBN is putting together a ride for this Saturday. I don't have all the specifics yet. If you interested, PM me and I will keep this threat updated and/or provide a link to SBN

I think we will be riding up in the Helen GA area (mountains). Send me PM if you are interested in going.

I live in the Ft. Stewart / Hinesville area. Not far from Savannah. I don't really know how "north" that is, but I live in GA.
