Why are you driving through Atlanta?? I would go around a traffic-hell city like that even if it added an hour to my road trip.

Back during the early 80s a friend and I drove through LA on Interstate 5 in his 72 MGB roadster. Traffic was 70MPH and the truck tires were right at head level. It was nerve-racking.

Of course, we had a half rack of ice-cold 16-ouncers to stay hydrated. So, there was that.

ROAD TRIP! 🍻

Too bad MC lane splitting isn't legal in GA. Do it far enough to clear diesel fumes?

Best way is I75/I85, I285 is 100 times worse than going through the middle of the city.

The best part of ATL is when you're finally out of city limits lol

Never been to Atlanta nor Tripoli but from what I've read Atlanta is a helluva lot better.

How about we move this anti-government poop to the underground.
Maybe you would be happier in Russia, where the wings of your airplane fall off.

I spent three years of my life just East of Dobbins Air Force Base. They were among the best years of my life. I ran through the woods of Georgia, and hiked the GA, AL boarder, floated down the Chattahoochee river, and danced and picked up women in many clubs in and around Atlanta.

I never had a problem in a "locals bar".

On the East coast, the Atlanta beltway, Fort lauderdale beltway, the Richmond beltway, the Washington Beltway, and the Baltimore beltway, are there for a reason. They are there to avert traffic from the center of the city. If one is capable of planning he would try to avoid those at high traffic times. They for the most part can't accommodate the high flow of traffic of these days.

I see that beer kicked in. How many of those did you enjoy?

I did a short stint as security at a trucking firm that is positioned at the end of a runway. I was delighted when the "Thunder birds" put on a show, and passed right over my head. They flew in formation, with the lead jet flying upside down, and just as they passed over head, the lead jet rolled over and flew upside up.

You can have it.

At least you weren't driving through Los Angeles. There you have to dodge bullets from the shootings that take place on the freeways. If you happen to own an electric car, charge it up before entering the city and once you've left it. The wires for the charging stations have been stolen to sell for scrap metal. The motorcycle expressway is between the two sets of solid double yellow lines. There is no rush hour. All 24 hours are bumper to bumper. While it's cooler in L.A., the air is barely breathable. People living there don't trust air they can't see.
