RIP riders....too bad the truck driver didn't burn, too.

ugh. unfortunately I'm not going to be able to make it, something came up. next time.

I made it through page 10 before my brain imploded. lol

haha I think I'm going to be pretty far in the back.

Had a friend in Montana who convinced the lady at the DMV that he had a young daughter named Tina so he could get "LIL TNA" on his Impala.

Can't. Or, to be more precise, won't. Can't miss FighterFest. lol

oh well y'all have fun

Definitely cannot make the 24th, will be in Carlisle.

Welcome

Ouch!

At least it will be healed up by Carlisle. lol

Welcome from Cleveland.

Welcome!

From Tail of the Dragon:

March 14, 2010: The rock slide on US 129 is located between the Dragon and Happy Valley Road/Foothills Parkway. Removal is scheduled to take several weeks. The road will likely be blocked completely at times, but for now there is one lane open with flaggers. There is no guarantee the one-lane will remain open and as of today we know of no way to check ahead. The only alternatives are the Cherohala Skyway which got more snow this morning and US 441 through the Great Smoky Mountains. Remember it’s a long way to backtrack if the road is completely closed.

And then you got this dumbass. Good thing there weren't any bikes in front of him.

Is this going to be continued this year?

Oh I'm jealous!

lol sorry I think I'm here for a bit.

Ugh, I need an oil change myself. At least she got a bath today.

Just in Columbus?

Wait three days and it will be right again.

Matches the clock on my bike, anyway.

1:47 here.

Those look like Pelican cases on the side, if I'm not mistaken........

Welcome from downtown Cleveland, and those of us that live around here are having a lil get-together on 3 Apr.

Congrats!

Holy shit I know those guys! lol....the guy on the DRZ ended up wrecking it, he doesn't ride anymore. The other two are stupid fast. I really miss riding Blood Mtn tho, it's still 129 (same as Deal's Gap), you just have to follow it down into GA. Lots of those guys, as video'ed, don't have any respect for the lines on the road or the traffic. They are good, but are going to get themselves killed one day. I rode 2up with a (really fast) friend of mine a couple times, just to see what it was like to go that fast...let's just say that, even more than these guys, he turned the "twisties" into "slightly curvies". One time we about hit an oil spill where someone had thrown a jug out their window (happens more often than you would think) in the turn that starts at about 3:35, it's a pretty sharp near hairpin. The store at the end is a neat little hiking store, but unfortunately the owner doesn't like bikers even though the parking lot is a good turn around point and meeting spot. Have to have a min $5 purchase to use a credit card, too. It's a real fun road, though-between 129, 180 (very tight, look for vids of Wolf Pen Gap) and 60 it's a good area to live in.
