I've never been to Rome, where the TT is, but was at Dahlonega last year. I would suggest planning much of your day there, as it is a nice little town--especially when you add all the tents and displays and all. There are some snack shops and a restaurant or two as well as all the vendors, and it makes for a great day. I would definitely suggest that you take advantage of the free parking in the field below town (not quite sure exactly where it was). We were one of only about 50 cars to use it, and they had a free shuttle to get up into town--great for people who aren't from around there, and it made getting out of town much easier!! Hope you enjoy your trip!!
