I skipped this one for a few months but it was good to be back for August, despite having an already very Miata filled month from covering Miatas At The Gap. The weather was still warm but quickly dropped as the sun set, leaving us with a fantastic end-of-summer evening to enjoy with a slight breeze and a good bit of texture in the sky- … Continue reading Miata Monday
Lifts and Lagers celebrated two years of community and growth in August of 2025 with a big celebration at Drowned Valley and man, folks poured in to hang out. It may have still been hot, but that didn’t stop folks from flooding the brewery spaces, both inside and out. While Lifts and Lagers doesn’t pick the food truck, it was a great happenstance it was … Continue reading Lifts and Lagers 2 year anniversary
I always say the Miata community is one of the friendliest groups of people to be a part of, and while I myself am not a Miata driver, I have owned one in the past and am married to an avid Miata enthusiast, so we’ve been involved with this group off and on for nearly two decades. Despite this, it was our first time being … Continue reading Miatas At The Gap
I hesitated to write this one and very much delayed in sharing it- not because I have a single negative thing to say, but because I don’t, and I’d hate to see what I truly loved about this meet get lost to an overcrowding issue. While the meet has already grown past the size offered by the space behind Perc on Hosea L Williams drive, … Continue reading Cars and Coffee Atlanta
July 17th saw the launch of Antrieb with their automotive and design inspired lounge nestled into the lower portion of the Autohaus Social service and repair shop, which can be easily located right in bustling Midtown. The brainchild of Autohaus Social owner Nash Tehrani and local architect and aspiring rally driver Kyle Benedict, the brand aims to be a home for all those involved in … Continue reading Antrieb launch
It was hot. Like excessively hot. Grody. Stifling. Draining. Sweat in places you ought not as soon as you leave the AC kind of hot. And those big fluffy clouds in the sky? They offered no relief, so overlanders did what overlanders do- they popped out the awnings and settled in the shade, creating a path shielded from the blaze of the sun in patches … Continue reading Lift and Lagers June
This meet keeps growing and growing and I love to see what unique vehicles show up each month. That said, the growth is coming with some pains and I would be doing the meet a disservice if I didn’t mention the whole “don’t take parking from open businesses/ Target’s pick up slots” and “don’t do dumb or disrespectful things”. Following simple guidelines means we can … Continue reading Worship June 2025
It had been a few months since we made it out to one of these meets due to some schedule conflicts and I was happy to see it had grown in the last few months. The weather was perfect, a slight unseasonal chill in the air and a cotton candy sunset slinking across the sky. We finally made it into the storefront this time and … Continue reading Pistons and Peaks May 2025
This meet was co-hosted by lots of groups and spaces, but the all women group Tuned Ladies being involved was enough reason for me to show up. It’s rare the group is able to make a weeknight meet on this side of the city, so when a lot of them said they’d be there I made sure to come hang out for a bit. I … Continue reading Anonymous at Grand Slam
Throwing all the M’s into that title this go around. This meet was short, but saw lots of new folks. Despite being held on Memorial day (hey, more M words), folks were willing to show up and hang out. At least until the rain came barrelling in, literally washing away anyone interested in mingling. I snapped a few photos, spoke to some friends and then … Continue reading Miata Monday May at MamiTaco
