Hey Atlanta guys - any 911 activities this weekend?

My wife and I will be in Atlanta from New Years Day (afternoon) thru Sunday (morning)...taking the 993 lux cruiser. Anyone planning to go for a ride in the hills Friday or Saturday? Also, what are the good routes to take? We'll also try to swing by the donut place in Chamblee Sat. AM.

I may hit the Donut shop, as well. I am 550 Spyder-less now, though, so may have to drive the 911 for a change!

Putting a tag on the SC Friday and plan to drive the new toy for first time (guess I better put a muffler on it tomorrow ). Unfortunately have to travel Sat so no weekend fun there.

Looks like a good show for donuts on Saturday and a ride afterward would be great. The route in the mountains is Hwy 400 to the end, then 129 to 348 to 180 and back. This is a great ride even if its raining.

As a fellow NoVa Porschephile, it warms my heart to see the hospitality you guys are showing my buddy Jim. Just make sure your hospitality includes slowing down so he can catch up.

Donuts? Who said donuts?!?!?

Say 9:30am or so? Is that when the Pantera crowd arrives?

I was thinking we meet at Donuts and leave from there at say 9:30 or 10:00 for a quick drive through the twisties. I need to be home by 2:30 or so.

Atlanta Pelicans - How about a couple outsiders. I'm from the Macon area and might give it a go to get to "Donuts" on Saturday morning if it's OK with you guys. Of course, I would need some directions or a map.
