Re: Lists of insurances that will cover the Atom

I'm also insured by State Farm in Georgia. I've been with the company for 15+years and asked for a "Stated Value" policy. They asked for photos and asked a lot of questions, but within 2 weeks I had coverage.

Re: US Atom: Roll Call - Who's Active?

Peter S. here from Atlanta GA. I just picked up a Brammo AA2 for road and track events. This one has some exposure on YouTube from the previous owner (Cleetus McFarland).
