Bad324 Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 It is looking highly probable that I will be in SC between Christmas and New Years and my family is boring so I'll be taking advantage of escaping by bringing the bike down.Were most likely ending up down at Kiawah Island which is about 45mins south of Charleston so unfortunately a decent ways away from the mountains and probable good roads.Anyway, looking for suggestions of roads to ride, places to see or a can't miss place I should eat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1crusher Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 I have bad news for you, you cannot take any kind of two wheeled vehicles into Kiawah Island. We're usually down there twice a year and that was the first thing I looked into. No trailers either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably couldn't even pull it off if I threw the bike in the bed either huh? Edited November 23, 2010 by Bad324 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casper Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 Honestly, you probably wouldn't want to ride anyways. I've ridden down there along the coast. The roads are covered in sand and you can't really see it. Worse than salt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The roads are covered in sand and you can't really see it. Worse than salt.I figure it'd be more easy, touring type riding. Just to get out and see new sights as well as be able to get my winter fix on some riding. Is the sand that bad for even this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But on the up side of that, you don't have a bunch of HD douches making racket at all hours of the day and night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted November 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 so I just talked to one of the head people at the security gate and I explained my situation. He said I would have to talk to the chief but for my intended purposes the chief MIGHT allow this so long as I don't ride the bike within the confines of the island. So just in case this happens, I'll bump this to top for interesting places to go or see and hoping sand isn't an issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ducati guy Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 You could always go to carolina motorsports park if they are open and ride on the track. Some of us were just there 2 wks ago, great fun track, very fast : ). They have a go kart track as well : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad324 Posted December 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 well just spoke to the chief today. They said I could bring the bike with a trailer down there HOWEVER I can't take it through the gates, instead I can park it at the town hall. So now the debate of whether or not I want to go that route runs on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 they have storage places where I kept my bike last time I went down there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted December 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 they have storage places where I kept my bike last time I went down theredo you recall where? As of now I'm not taking the bike but that could change by Sunday, I'm not sure yet. Knowing the area, the town hall parking lot doesn't bother me too much as I've already got enough things to lock it down to feel secure. If someone steals it, its worth more to insurance than it is if I were to sell it so although it would suck to lose at least I'm not getting screwed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
