2017 North Georgia Classic
HawkGTRider:
The first "HSTA" event I ever attended was STAR '93 in Helen. There were a couple of really nice days and at least one rainy day. The Totes outlet just up the street was doing a booming business in rubber boots and such.

Yes that is the first STAR I attended. Was wet. Corbin seats was there. Patricia and I rode down from Ohio. We purchased a Corbin Gunfighter seat for the Concours. Half way home Patricia told me to stop and buy her a pillow for the seat. It truly was hard! Also you loose 4" from the back seat for the hinge. We sold that seat pretty quickly!

The person at the Quality Inn told me she had one MSTA member cancel who had a broken ankle and one who had a three month old bike that wouldn't start.
For you who do go... I hope I'm wrong. I've attended many a wet Helen event in the past.

I checked to see if the BMWOA was having their Georgia Mountain rally the same weekend. Anytime we had the NGC event the same dates, it rained all weekend (to soak all the BMW campers) The BMW event is in a couple weeks though.

Actually there is a BMfWMOA rally happening this same weekend at the Fontana Village Lodge. There probably aren't that many campers there.

Yea I remember that Corbin brought their big long trailer to sell seats at the STAR in Helen. We used to have vendors attend STAR.
Anyway they were very upset with whomever gave them directions to Helen because they were routed on US129 better know as Deals Gap and had an awful time getting their long trailer through all the curves.
