Well glad to see that we have people from Birmingham on the forum.

Well gonna rant for quick second can't understand why Dunn Construction on 459 going southwest just past Grant Mills didn't taper off the asphalt they pulled up at the bridges/over passes like they do in every other state I have lived in. Hitting that 90 degree concrete lip mess up my my alignment and balancing on the car. Friend was in car with me he thought my wheels fell off and he hit it the next day on his motorcycle which cause some crazy wobbling.

When they shaved up the lanes going down 280 to downtown Birmingham they managed to taper off each lane were the shaved asphalt meets the non shaved and the speed limit is lower there your not hitting those going 65-70

Went to the Birmingham Cars and Coffee this morning. There was a pretty good turnout, meet some nice BMW people. There was a M5, Z3, 355i pre lci and me. They meet every Saturday from 8:30-10 on top of the parking deck behind Applebees at the Brookwood mall. Everyone should come out and represent!

We should set a date for all of us to meet up and go to the cars and coffee. Would be funny to see the reactions of people when all the E9x roll up.

Ok.

How does this Saturday look for meeting up and riding in to C & C?
If the weather continues to look nice I think I can go. Just putting a feeler out.
