Left the house this weekend with no destination, not a clue. I had one stop in a little city called Bell Buckle for lunch and after that, no clue. Decided I'd never been to Lynchburg, so rode thru there and past the jack Daniels distillery. It was busy. A couple random turns and unnamed roads put me back on I 24 at 2000ft elevation in Manchester. Had lots of daylight left so headed south and finally the mountains. 64/74 out of Cleveland, TN all the way to Murphy, NC for the night. Next day made my way back to 68 North to Tellico, then east across the Cherohala and lunch in Robbinsville then back west across 129 and finally headed home. Great to be back on the bike first solid outing of the year...gap run on a Sunday afternoon was terrible so many cars, cops, and cruisers . Cherohala was a clean run, it was crisp and clear at 5300ft elevation. I really like 68, always have. Not bad for a 600 mile two day ride.

what a beautiful day.....utterly exhausted. Videos to come....

Med-Fast Route-377 --

That's always a plus! I had to a buy a new suit for a wedding I'm going to in Atlanta this weekend because none of the ones I have fit me anymore. I've been getting rid of all my "fat" clothes. Not going back there.

Yes. And sometimes someone trying to find a hooker, someone hooking up with a staff member, someone puking, someone fighting, someone passing out at the gas station, someone running around yelling "argg I'm a pirate", someone getting into a push-up contest with strangers, someone trying to hookup with random married women from another group, someone thinking shine was fruit juice or something, someone being chased by a bear, etc...

So you blured that one part near the beginning so we couldn't see you way over the yellow?

You need to get other video, watching only your POV sucks... Just saying

You might just get your wish,or at least most of it.Some of the middle section is slated to be paved this fiscal year.I'd have to check again to see exactly where.

found the "tip" sensor not mounted correctly, went to go check for codes in it and found the sensor laying on its side. FIXED.

I do not have my Joel decoder ring on but i think i get what you are saying and yes if everything works we can arrange something.

There is one not far from our hotel Wednesday night. You asshats really dont seem to comprehend who you are rolling with.

FJR comes stock with really good grips.

Cant go wrong with ProGrip 719s or 699s. I havent used any thing else in quite a few years and multiple bikes.

Ah, so there's 3 things we wont have to worry about this year then right?

Welcome! Nice meeting you. We do rides monthly and you are more than welcome to ride with us anytime. Just beware if you go out with us it is 500+ Miles and you won't be home before dinner!

Is Bojangles good?

The best sort. Hell I think 3 of those things Casper covered were all me

Fuck sake, what sort of shenanigans did I prepay for?!?!

I am currently in Cherokee,NC. This is at the other end o Maggie valley. I visited the wheels through Time museum today. Also watched the wall of death thrill show. It was cool seeing the girl ride the go cart on the walls. I ride a 1982 GS 850 GL.

Here, here! It's like a very abbreviated version of a Gap trip. Good riding, good people, good times

Best advice ever given on OR.

Thanks @Casper

Well I'm on vacation in Florida and had to go buy new swimming gear when we got here. Wasn't thinking that my old stuff wouldn't fit me anymore...lol

Pics coming soon.

Did a quick google search...

You've gotta ride to Athens if for nothing else then the roads, but there is a decent local BarBQ, Kiser's BarBQ, as well as three award winning breweries, Jackie O's Brewery and Public House, which has great food, Little Fish Brewery, that always has a food truck there when open, and Devil's Kettle Brewery. Also, Lake Hope State Park Dinning Lodge and Hocking Hills State Park Lodge have excellent in-house smoked meats and BarBQ run by the same excellent chef and Beemer rider.

I have the VIZIO SB4051-C0 40-Inch 5.1 Sound Bar System with Wireless Rear's. Note that the rears are "wireless" from the soundbar. They however are NOT wireless from the sub. My soundbar is obviously set on my tv stand and my sub is in the center of the wall behind my couches and the speakers have the wire ran along the base of the wall to either corner behind the couches

Fully intend to be very focused while I am riding down there.

Nope, im the white guy with the beard.

My good honest word........smartass....LOL
