YamaDuck Posted July 20, 2013 #1 Posted July 20, 2013 Leaving Atlanta, Ga Saturday morning the 27th around 4:30 or 5 am for the International Rally. Riding interstates as much as possible to make good time. Does VentureRiders have a preferred CB channel and if so what is it? I would like to listen for other members on the road on the way up. Also if you happen to past a MM on the side of the rode it may be me so please stop and check if you see me. See ya'll Sunday the 28th.
