Southeastern Convoy

[Ken Potter]

If all goes well for me I hope to depart Marietta between 8:00AM and 9:00AM on Friday.

I'm not far from I-75 and will be hauling the Pace Car on the trailer.

I'm thinking either the on ramp to I-75 at Emerson / Cartersville or maybe the McDonalds at State Hwy. 20 and I-75?

There is a gas station with diesel directly across from the McDonalds which would be good for me to fill up.

I'll be meeting up with JayG in Asheville, NC.

If I can get mine up to snuff I'll meet up with ya. Exit 296 Cass / White Exit just north of Cartersville has a T/A and Pilot with a Burger King and McDonalds respectively.

I usually jump on at exit 285 (Red Top). Call me when it gets closer and I'll roll with y'all.

I will most likely join this group on Friday morning. I'm just off exit 277 so I can meet you guys where ever makes sense to get the truck filled.

[Ken Potter]

How is this?

The red circles the entire McDonalds and the yellow area circles the truck stop area of their parking lot. The gas / diesel station is across the street. These pics are north & south.

I'm shooting for being there sometime between 9:00AM and 10:00AM on Friday morning. The earlier the better of course. That should put us at the hotel somewhere between 3:00PM and 4:00PM from what I remember last time. Also my cruising range is about twice that of an SVO so you guys can lead the way. I like to cruise about 80MPH...

[Ken Potter]

I just Mapquested it from the house here in Marietta and it says 5 Hours and 47 Minutes at 369 miles.

[PsRumors]

It is official, at the very least I will not be going up on Friday. One of my customers has scheduled a meeting in Milledgeville, GA on the 5th. Dependant on the meeting I may not make the weekend at all.

[GAboySVO]

Ken, Bud,

Have you finalized a departure time?

[onthegosvo]

I will be leaving for Kentucky Thursday morning.

Duck & JayG,
What time and where do you guys want to meet in Asheville?

[Ken Potter]

I guess we need to first agree that the McDonald's is the place to meet up?

If it is I'd like to leave from there no later than 10:00AM.

If I'm not there by 10 for whatever reason you guys can go ahead without me.

Well since the wife is in the leg cast I did not register even though I think the SVO might make it.. I will be rolling behind onthegosvo (Steve) in the MS6 since I have to be back at work on Monday.

how bout 10am at the McDonalds, exit 290 (cartersville - hwy 20) work for everyone? keeps us out of rushhour - gets us there before dinner.

You can still register the day of the event. PRE-registration is over - that's all. BRING THE SVO!!

[Ken Potter]

Works for me. If we can get there earlier we can leave earlier of course...
