You not coming ? WTF I would like to. But with my wife’s eye issues it just isn’t doable for her. And it wouldn’t be fun for me leaving her behind. |

Hey Joe. Twila and I will be trailering down (she cant ride that far plus we have dads books) and are stopping in Luttrell to visit her aunt and uncle for a couple of days. Then we will come into Ashville on Monday morning.
Tell me where you guys are meeting up in Clinton and I will take the valkyrie off the trailer and ride over to do some tire kicking.

Joe, you and the guys have a great ride and hopefully a great time, cooties or not.
If you see T-Bird ask him if he got Petra's message as he never responded back.
Miss riding with you my friend.
Ride like the wind and keep the throttle down.
See you on the road someday again.

T-Bird is at or near Vanderbilt hospital in case they find him a match on a heart and liver. He needs all thoughts and prayers. |

Ground Zero is in the heart of clogged traffic city as far as I can tell. I was bummed at first, but it looks like you can get on/off the BRP at hwy 25 by using Vanderbilt and Stuyvesant which are country roads (or golf course) on the edge of the Biltmore property - Vanderbilt goes right to Ground Zero ... Don't want to spend a week riding up and down the BRP, but easy access to it means you can use it to get out of town and then exit someplace nearby that's not as disgusting as the two or three Asheville exits. 25 goes right to Ground Zero too, and probably isn't too bad. You can often be forced to sit in traffic on I-26 or I-40 at Asheville like it was I-85 into Atlanta, though... -Mike |
