amstalder 0 #1 August 3, 2010 So Im going to Atlanta this weekend for a non-skydiving weekend *gasp* Doing a braves game, six flags, coke museum, you know, the usual. So two questions: 1) What are some good under 21 random things to do? and 2) Anyone have a bicycle shop recommendation? Really want a road bike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites JohnMitchell 14 #2 August 3, 2010 Under 21? Uhmmm, go to Six Flags, hit a Braves game, maybe go to the Coke Museum. Can't think of anything else, really. Maybe get some fake ID? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Amazon 7 #3 August 3, 2010 Quote Under 21?

I thought it was a non-skydiving weekend... but the coke museum.... now that has some skydiving history Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites amstalder 0 #4 August 3, 2010 Quote Under 21?

It's atlanta, there have to be some fun restaurants, etc! But thanks for the ideas on things to do Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites JohnMitchell 14 #5 August 3, 2010 Quote .. but the coke museum.... now that has some skydiving history Oh yeah, the 80's.

How about a water park excursion? Does anybody know if the white water park up north of Atlanta is still open? It's been like 10 years since I last went. Then again, you're in the ARRRRMY, you can handle the heat. Have fun whatever you do!

Have fun whatever you do! No, shes not. She should join though, I for one think she would LOVE it!Besides, Atlanta in August... that would be a freaking resort for me right now!Six Flags was fun, havn't been there in about 5 years though, and IIRC they have a waterpark... Go check out the underground mall... its not a big tourist thing, but I thought it was interesting. Theres an aquarium and an art museum thats suppossed to be good... if you're into that kinda stuff. Oh, best thing about Atlanta, STF isn't too far away "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites micduran 0 #10 August 3, 2010 Atlanta Cycling White Water is still open.
