The routes I researched take at least 1h15m to get to from Roswell. Add an hour of mountain driving and then the drive back, and it'll be longer than most of us would want to drive!

Chattahoochee national forest seems like a good destination but it's 1hr 45min from Roswell.

Mountain drives would be at least an hour+ away like you said, so maybe we could go for an in-town driving, stop by for lunch?
That way, those who want to join the drive for a little bit could tag along and then go their way.
Mowe could join us at the lunch maybe?

Just a thought.

I'm good with that. It looks like we'll have to make our final decision on the fly when we meet up

Sorry to say but I am now on the fence about heading down to y'all. I may not make it out. If I do, I'm gonna be leaving here around 5am tomorrow morning to make it in time. Just unsure about it.

I'm in for some $$ for the photographer - great idea!

We'd love to have you for the next one whenever that happens. I'd like to get a huge group out there.

Hey guys, the photographer is done with the photos. He will be uploading the video towards the end of the week. I'll attach the google drive link down below for everyone to access.

Thanks Alex! Love the group pics. Do you know if he has more pics of the individual cars? I'm looking forward to see the edited video.

I started a thread in the photos section here: https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1929382

He doesn't have many individual shots of the cars. I asked him as well but he said he was willing to come out again to the next meet if you guys weren't satisfied with what he provided. Feedback would be much appreciated.

masd79 · 06-09-2022, 07:12 AM

Yes was hoping some more closeup individual shots; the drone shots are good but can't zoom in due to resolution..

nearwater4me · 06-09-2022, 07:49 AM

Thanks for the pics, Alex.
But yeah, I agree that we were expecting to see some more shots of each car.

G80.Alex · 06-09-2022, 10:02 AM

Hey guys, I spoke with the photographer and he said when he got a general consensus from everybody he asked everybody said more group photos so that's what he focused. He's offering to come out to the next meet for some individual photos so whenever we set the date for the next meet I will let him know.

Ag3ofShadows · 06-12-2022, 06:16 PM

Sorry I missed it. I had a last minute offer come up to join some friends out on the lake that morning. I'll catch the next one for sure, amazing photos!
