For sure. I would love to meet the man.

So this is still on. I have setup lodging.

My neighbor wants to do the stereo typical things like dragon, blue skyway, cherk. skyway, devils triangle...

But I want to get in on some of the more "local" roads as well.

Drewpy... you and jenna in for at least some fun?
Ducati Diva... you and Jeeps still in for hooking up?

I'm pretty sure Jeeps is still interested. I would love to but will prob have to work (we see what times your close to our area). If you do the Blue Ridge Parkway let me know and I'll try to meet up with you. You've got our numbers just give Jeeps a call for getting together.

I might be able to meet you guys there, since you're riding during the weekend. Your friend knows Deal's Gap and the SkyWay are going to be full of traffic and cops during the weekend, right? Not discouraging taking a ride through, but I wouldn't spend all day on them (and might want to run at about 70%).

They aren't riding sportbikes, so it won't be much of a concern. You can still have fun on the weekends, you just need to know when to ride.

I was talkin to Drewpy...I'm thinking GAP, Blue Ridge, Skyway, Devils Triangle on Sat. Then the other "good stuff" via Trip on Sunday.

I'm on a Ultra Classic, he's on a Honda Shadow... one run thru the GAP each way dodging sportbikes passing us the whole way. No big deal.

I can't wait... I'm getting super pumped! I just hope the weather co-operates and I don't have to wear rain gear the entire time.

I am hoping I can find a bike to borrow or find a new bike before then.

yeah, it's gone already. Just have the 50 and the DRZ. I don't think the DRZ is up for a very far trip on pavement with knobbies on it.

I hear otherwise, that you are just a bitch and won't let it perform. Hearsay though... I'll let you figure out who said it.

Well do somin... or I also have confirmed the great idea of just borrowing PCs bike! That you are about the only person that is "approved" to borrow the bike. Again hearsay.

You got a couple weeks and I highly doubt I can see you not looking hard each day.
