I know where that is. About 4 hours from me. That's close to some pretty nice riding.


Visiting friends?

No. A bunch of us are heading down on our annual ride. We did New River Gorge, WV last 2 years.

Congrats on the bike Mike. Morning fellers. Had to come back and get a trailer. So long Woodrow's...

Ummm...what? I must've missed a step. Do I need that to prevent gas from pouring out after I pull the tank off? I can hit Vato Zone if that will be sufficient qualtiy

Since you won't have your bike with you, I have a nice cushy back seat on Ol' Blue that's yours if you want it. I promise to keep you safe and sound.

Sounds like fun. You guy ever been down to Maggie Valley NC? Great place to stage from and very biker friendly.
