Another Atlanta Breakfast Rally event covered so soon? I admit, my turn around on the September event was obliterated by my focus on ARA and Luftgekuhlt editing, so I wanted to do better for the October event. This one was off road, split between two different off-road portions with a short jaunt of on-pavement between the two, and I drove after the first half so … Continue reading ABR Overlooks and Pastries
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
Hill and the L&L crew let ABR take over the back lot and crash their party at the brewery, and there seemed to be a good appreciation from both groups for the intermingling and variety of things to look at. I say it every time we cover one of these meets, but you sincerely will not find a more welcoming group of off-roaders or overlanders … Continue reading Lifts and Lagers 4-13-2025

Justin tends to show up nearly … Continue reading Pistons and Peaks Feb 21
Our first visit to this meet last month was so welcoming we did it again. This time we encouraged a few local friends to join us and despite the cold weather again, the turn out was great. There were a few different faces this month and those who we had met last month were welcoming to us again. I know I said it last time … Continue reading Lifts and Lagers February
Worship is such a unique experience month to month. Certainly there are the staples, every month they are there with the same vehicle, showing dedication to the first Sunday meet up spun off many years ago from the increasing experience that Caffeine and Octane was becoming. But for many of those who routinely rise early on these Sunday mornings to come stand in a Panera … Continue reading Worship – Feb 2
So before we get started here, full disclosure, I am married to the originator of Atlanta Breakfast Rally, and often help plan these events, so to say I was invited along for the trip wouldn’t be honest- I helped to plan this trip, and as I do with all of the other trips planned thus far by ABR, I played the role of passenger photographer. … Continue reading Adventure Time! with ABR
Tucked away OTP Northwest in Cartersville there’s a monthly meet for the off-road inclined called Lifts and Lagers. Hosted at a brewery nestled at the edge of downtown you might expect the meet to be small, but despite the uncommon snow flurries in the air and the cold weather, quite a few rigs were parked in the lots next to and behind the brewery. A … Continue reading Lifts and Lagers
