Long story short I got a room from Thursday thru Sunday, leaving on Sunday, at the F6B rate. They only have two other rooms left, a pet friendly room and a smoking room. Looking forward to meeting everyone!

I just got done looking at all the pictures posted from last years rally. What should we expect as far as temperatures. I noticed on the morning rides it looked like people were wearing sweatshirts and riding jackets. Just trying to decide on what to bring. I know the rule, prepare for anything but thought that I would still ask. Thanks for any advice!

I checked with "Wikopedia" as to the ave temps for Franklin in sept. looks like highs around 79-83, and over nite lows of upper 50s. So, pack accordingly, and something for non-average days.
I was in Asheville a few years back on the 13th of September and started my ride at 10 AM at 43 degrees and a sky so blue sunglasses barely helped--until you took them off and found out how bright it really was.
Can't wait.

and I have to go....so I've canceled my room at Microtel
Everybody have a great time and have a cocktail for me

Looks like I'm able to go this year, worked it out at my job. I called a couple of days ago and they put me on a waiting list at the Microtel, wife may also come depending how things work out. Looking forward to meeting all. Add me to the list also and I'm riding from Florida.
