Franklin Friday Drive and Lunch - UPDATED 3/20/12
W1ngman (and/or I) will be leading a “moderate” lunch drive along Hwy 28 to Franklin, NC on Friday morning. This will be a scenic drive following posted speeds + 5mph. The drive will leave Fontana, from the parking area in front of the Wildwood Grill (where Billman will be doing his magic) @ 10:30am sharp.
This will be a pleasant drive to Franklin, NC where our group will have lunch at Cafe Rel around noon. After lunch, we’ll take a brief stroll through town and enjoy a nearby ice cream shop. The return route will be via Wayah Rd. The drive is roughly 48 miles each way, for about a 2.5 hour total drive (plus time for lunch/dessert). The drive will follow this route from Robbinsiville to Franklin and returning via Wayah Rd .
I have confirmed with the Cafe Rel that they can accommodate up to 32 people. As they will also have 'regular folks' eating lunch there, the drive group will be limited to no more than 30 individuals to better ensure we all get seated/eat together.
This establishment is definitely 'cozy'... While we won't all be at one table...we will nonetheless be in eyesight of one another as a group
. There is a large parking lot at Cafe Rel at the side so we should all be able to get into the lot.
If you have a +1 coming along, please let me know so I can give the Cafe an idea of how many to expect and bring cash, they don't take credit cards..

Yeah you wanna match? My ass and your face. I mean your ass and my face, what's up?
Sadly, Katelyn won't be making it this time.
Trying to get a buddy of mine from GA to come up, as well as Steve (scramblerman on s2ki) to tag along...but we'll see.
