Plannin on coming to Kentucky for the Southeastern Meet? Please post with which Run you would like to go on so that we can start planning on groups.....


If you havent signed up for any of the runs please do so in order for us to organize the groups......

Also if you would like to join in any of the group dinner choices......

All of these runs are pretty strong on twisties. The Winery and Distillery Tours both run through the Kentucky River Palisades, and the Winery Tour adds a run down to the river at Valley View and back. The few roads that are straight for any distance are hilly, so nothing will be boring. We are referring to the 227 run as the serious twisty run because it runs through some semi-remote countryside, and is lightly travelled. The speed limit for most of its length is 55 MPH, and not many people can run the whole thing that fast, so generally you can run it as fast as you want. It is probably the only run that we will divide into speed classes.

Offered Friday Morning and Sat Morning
227 Hot Shoes : 7:30AM : Depart for a run up 227 and back. It is a little under an hour each way, so the return would be by 10:00 AM. JRinKY plans to lead this run as many times as anyone wants to make it, because the road is that much fun.....


Friday only....

Friday Night Dinner Suggestions:

Reservations are necessary for all meals to assure availability I need to know by August 10th to make Reservations-

deShae's - Downtown Lexington, parking garage very upscale.... Limit to the first 15 people

Elk Creek Winery - Owenton... this includes the 227 Run.... Food is Sandwich Cafe.... No Limit



Natural Bridge ( Long ): Also known as Red River Gorge. This is classed as a long run because it is mostly driving. Has some twisties, one lane roads and a one lane tunnel, visits the Natural Bridge Park.

This run will be broken up into groups of 7 to 8 cars leaving 15 mins apart starting at 9:00am and the last groups out are reserved for the 227 Runners that Morning.

Sat only:

1. Bourbon Tour:10:00 AM : Depart for the Bourbon Tour. This tour will easily allow a return by 3:00 PM if we limit the stops to two (Woodford Reserve and Wild Turkey). Woodford is a small-batch, hand operation, Turkey is a medium-sized operation. Has some twisties, one lane roads, short turnaround at Shaker Village, visiting Wild Turkey, Woodford Reserve.....

2. Wine Tour : 10:00 AM : Depart for the Winery Tour. There are several easy-return bail-out points for anyone who wants to return early, or we can shorten the whole run to return at 3:00 if there is limited interest in actually visiting and tasting at all of the wineries. Has some twisties, sweeping rollin hills, visits 4-5 Wineries around Lexington planning on eating at one of the Wineries.


There will also be some type of visit to The Kentucky Horse Park for those who are interested. Thinkin maybe taking the Group Pic over there on Friday Afternoon after everyone is back from the runs but before dinner....
