Seeing as there is always a bike-night thread, why don't we make a thread that'll be a mile long concerning who be in, who be out, and so on and so on.
If you see it on the main page, it means somebody is posting and you should go to the last page so you see the latest posts about this week at the Vortex.
For your info, Bike night is every Thursday night in Atlanta. On a good night it'll push 400 or so bikes, start at around 7PM and go until you want to leave. From Downtown Atlanta on I-75/I-85 take the North Avenue exit east down to (is it moreland?), take a right and the VORTEX is on your right. A big contigent of VTX riders is making this their home - so you will see a bunch of us there.
This week 5-4-06 I am coming, along with at least 3 other VTX riders, so who else is in (yes, I will bring the bag of hinge parts).
Well, I must say, the place is certainly......Different! I did enjoy meeting everybody and Scarecrow, true to his word, bought me a Coke! Sam, don't let anybody kid you, the Yellow paint job is ShArP, I like it. I appreciate Hans and.............Larry i believe, riding with us from the southside. Next time Tom, maybe we can actually talk. Me and Tony nearly got severely blocked in but managed an escape right before the guy in front of us went inside. Didn't really care for the streets up that way and I can see that in the almost 20 years since I drove trucks in and around the area, they haven't improved much. But it was a good ride up and back, no rain this time. Good food, good company and if I failed to mention you by name, no slight intended (and I thought it was just the hair I was losing)! Let me try one more time:

The nice thing about just doing the Vortex once a month is it doesn't get boring. I certainly hope you and the boys from the "south" can make it again next month. Sorry we didn't get more time to "jaw".
Looks like we missed a good one. Planned on going but got soaking wet on the 316 about an hour before we were going to go to the Vortex. Rain hurts when in shorts and a teeshirt going 70, and at 60, 50 .40. Had to take back road home. Glad you all hand a great time. The number keeps on rising. Spotted an X at gas-station by my house and stopped. He lives about 2 miles from me and just got his X 2 months ago. Told him about the vtxoa board.He seemed very interested. Maybe another seat at the table will be needed.
The cruisers get there early and get the closest parking spaces, on the left. The sporties come later and are relegated to the right and behind the building.
But after 10, the sporties take over, cause us old cruiser riders gotta get home and go to bed! :lol:

Best burger in town + soda + tax + tip ~ $15 cash
If you have a beer or two make it $20
The check doesn't get split up, so be ready to drop your green in when the check comes.

Anyone going to the Vortex this month? I will be attending if anyone is leaving from the Lawrenceville area and would like to meet up I would enjoy the company. Never rode in Atlanta traffic before on the bike :roll:
Don't tease us!!! We have to fight to get in line so I bought mine thru HDL and paid the inflated PRICE!!! Oh Well, at least it does work as advertised!!!
I dont want to sound like a whimp again but here goes:
Anyone leaving from 75 north of the city i will be at the Hardee's on 263 about 6:30. this is an hour later then normal but i cant stand this heat and dont really see much happening the first hour there anyways... with the time change and all.
Let me know if Maria and I need to look out for anyone.
Tina and I will be there. I will be picking her up from work in downtown ATL, then heading over to the Vortex. So, I'll be a little later then usual.
Scarecrow - If you want to ride in together, let me know. We can ride in until you peel off at Moreland and I'll continue on in to downtown.
Coyote - I'll take a hinge for a 1300 if you have any.
