And Fat Matt's is still the famous BBQ place, though there are a lot of other good ones. As for the course--it is P2P from Buckhead to Midtown, with a lot of downhill from 1 to 3, a lot of uphill from 3 to 5, and a bit of a downhill from 5 to 6.JARhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08443915271016647503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7465956249798874262.post-81209181231605827852010-03-20T14:23:22.866-04:002010-03-20T14:23:22.866-04:00It's fast more by virtue of the field than the...It's fast more by virtue of the field than the course, in the same fashion as Carlsbad 5000. The course might not be necessarily slow but I'd also say the conditions - 1000 degrees with 1000% humidity - hardly make for fast running. <br /><br />And yes Gladys' chicken and waffles is there still I'm pretty certainRMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01079220291482067777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7465956249798874262.post-89702306511455534692010-03-19T16:41:33.629-04:002010-03-19T16:41:33.629-04:00Yes that does sound like a good road trip.

P-2-P downhill from Buckhead to Midtown... but that's a faded memory from many moons ago. <br />Is Fat Matt's still there?

But if people wanted to go down to Atlanta, I'd be up for the road trip. About 11 hours of a drive from Baltimore. Great stops along the way. Lots of bbq, fireworks, peaches. Could stop and take a dump on Cameron Indoor Stadium.RMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01079220291482067777noreply@blogger.com
