JCMathis Posted June 30, 2011 Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 If you see a Red Goldwing with flames, red Bandit 1250 with full body kit and a blue Triumph Sprint ST Saturday give us a wave. We are leaving at 4:30am Saturday to do the Iron Butt Bun Burner which is 1000 miles in 24 hours. We will be very close to hayesville as our lowest point before we head back north. It is possible we will get down there and decide it is not worth it to try and do it all in 24 hours so we may end up staying the night and riding some more of that awesome area. Hope you have a great trip and make some awesome memories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
