Operation Stelvy-Fetch

Well I leave Sunday a.m. bright and early on a metal bird from Daytona Beach to Atlanta (via Charlotte) on my way to fetch my 2009 Moto Guzzi Stelvio.

Stelvy has been in a shop in north Georgia for a number of weeks having a warranty issue attended to. Why north Georgia you ask? Well, Rider's Hill is the only shop anywhere remotely near me that I would trust the bike with. The head mechanic's nickname is GuzziSteve if that gives you any clue.

So I should arrive in Atlanta around 11 a.m. where my good pal Rob will pick me up at the airport and drive me up to Rider's Hill, maybe an hour north?

The plan is then for Rob and I to ride around Sunday afternoon in the north Georgia mountains.

Monday I plan to hit the road early and cover the ~510 miles home to Deland aboard the Stelvio.

I don't want to just turn n burn on the interstate highways the whole way so I am hoping to take some more scenic state highways home.

Here's to everything working out as planned :)
