Hey everyone.

Just wanted to invite anyone that was going up on Friday Afternoon to a caravan I'm setting up for Bug-A-Palüza 14.

You can find the details on VWVortex.

[url=http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthread.php?5566261-ATL-GA-Bug-a-Pal%FCza-14-Caravan-from-ATL-to-Chattanooga-(Friday-April-20-2012)/]ATL: GA Bug-a-Palüza 14 Caravan from ATL to Chattanooga (Friday, April 20, 2012)[/url]

All air-cooled and water-cooled Dubs are welcome to join in on the trip to Chattanooga.

I've also set up an event on Facebook for those connected to the social media side of things: Bug-A-Palüza 14 Caravan. Feel free to RSVP and invite your friends, family, Air-Cooled or Water-Cooled.


Cool

Just make sure if you put your car in the show that they don't "lose" your registration... I won't go back there; they are so disorganized that they can't find their asses with both hands.

Ouch that sucks.

I didn't have any issue with my first time there last year. Having a copy of your registration for them helps too.

Hate to hear that you had such a bad experience there. Sad

Who is planning to go to BAP on Friday? Who is going on Saturday? Sunday?

I plan to go on Friday morning. I'm going to spring Little Jon from school on my way out of town. I want to get there, set up camp, and relax. Cool
So who else is going Friday?

Here's the details of the Caravan

I'm organizing a caravan for Bug-a-Palüza 14 in Chattanooga. I've set up an unofficial event page on Facebook.

Click Here to RSVP to the Facebook Event

Here's the lastest news:

Registration is $16 and is good for the entire weekend for those who wish to show case their dub.

Spectator fee is $4 per person.

"Your registration is good all weekend. Registration is also available at the show on Saturday, but it is cheaper to pre-register here. Because of limited space, Sunday-only show cars wishing to be judged must be pre-registered only. New registrations will not be accepted on Sunday." - http://www.bugapaluza.com/register

We're officially 85 Days away from show time! Time to get some caravan ideas in order.

As much as I would love to do a caravan on Saturday morning, parking will be intense by the time we get there, so we're going to do a Friday Morning Caravan. Two actually:

DISCOVER MILLS



  • 11:00 AM
  • Skate Rink/Park parking lot (around the corner from AMC Theaters)
  • Location Shown in Map (Purple Push Pin)
  • This is the usual spot for Dirty Dubs for their SoWo caravan.
  • This is for those of us already coming I-85 South (from Athens, Winder, Lawrenceville, etc.)


COBB GALLERIA



  • 12:00 - 12:30 PM
  • Location Shown in Map (Purple Push Pin)
  • This is for the people coming UP I-75 North from south of Atlanta. (Forest Park, Atlanta, Doraville, Stockbridge, etc.)
  • The group from Discover Mills will be meeting here.


The meeting spots are noted with the PURPLE pin-points in both maps.

It looks like your route is mostly going to be expressway. From Athens we typically take Hwy 53 all the way to 75. It is much more enjoyable than fighting to go fast enough on the expressway in our older aircooled cars.

Yes, the majority of our caravan will be interstate driving.

As for your specific route to the show, can you specify the route? I think that might a great option for next year's caravan to gather both Air and Water. Hope you, and those that join your Hwy 53 to I-75 route, have an enjoyable drive and hope to meet you at the show.

As for traveling, I am going to request that all drivers to obey local speed limits, this is a cruise, not a race.

Hope to have a great crowd for the caravan.
