Angel City Bike Rally
story and photos by Rodney Rossignol

Being a Harley Davidson owner and enthusiast for many years I have attended my share of bike rallies.

If you are a fan of great looking motorcycles, meeting new friends, camping or just want to let you hair down, then the Angel City Bike Rally in Unadilla, GA is a must do event.

There is a spring and fall rally each year. The rally takes place on a well groomed 100 acres with a  western town built for biker, lots of horsepower, but no horses!

Sportscar Vintage Racing Association
Road Atlanta Season Finale
October 15-18, 2009
Unlike other vintage series, SVRA features all-out racing. Even better, wherever possible, the cars are raced to the specifications by which they were originally raced. Drum brakes in racing? You bet; that what makes a Porsche 356 a Porsche 356; and the fans and competitors love it. The Sportscar Vintage Racing Association was founded over 20 years ago with the vision of keeping vintage race cars on race tracks where they belong, and can delight fans just as they did in their heyday.
