WHEN: 20,
21, 22 April 2007
WHERE: Thomasville, GA. Ride the unspoiled country roads of the southwest
Georgia and the Florida Panhandle before they get all built up like south Florida’s roads. Do a tri-state tour of Florida, Georgia, and Alabama. Take a tour down to the Gulf Coast.
WHO: HSTA members and Friends.
TELL ME MORE: The site for this year’s Spring Fling is about 30
miles north east of Tallahassee. It is a smaller town, meaning less traffic to
contend with on your way to and from the back roads. It is close enough to Tallahassee that you can still do the canopy roads around there
as well. Once you are out of town nearly
all the roads are lightly traveled county roads, a very nice change from the
congested roads of south and east Florida.

of these roads? Click on
the picture. And you can download a Garmin file of them as well. Here are some
other things you can do and see at Spring Fling.
We have a block of rooms being held until 20 March at Quality Inn and Suites. Price is $55 per night. Two
room suites are also available. Be sure to tell them you are with Honda Sport Touring
Association. The motel has a lounge and small restaurant with happy hour from 4 to 7 PM
– a good place to swap lies after Saturday’s ride. There are a variety of restaurants
within walking distance of the hotel and if you wish to drive your motorcycle
there are more downtown. The hotel
layout is U shaped and you can request a room facing the courtyard or the
parking lot. Note the pool and patio in the courtyard.
Be sure to make your reservation
early. Hotel Phone: (229) 225-2134. The hotel will hold these rooms until 20
March.
