guess that is why the boys get a little smaller when it comes to seeing how low I can get on the corners. Cause the wife is always behind me and I don't want to skin her up. (that is the wife)

There is a HOG rally going on in Hiwassee Georgia this weekend. I must have seen a thousand ultra classics on Thursday. Most HOG (Harley Owners Group) members are typical upper middle class biker wannabees and they all get together for road trips and spend most of their time eating and drinking and not riding. I suspect there will be many more of them dropping those beauties (bikes and gals)

Thunder In The Smokies is this weekend also out of Maggie Valley....That place along with The Dragon , Cherohala Skyline , Foothills Parkway ,Hellbender & Moonshiner 28 will be packed to the max  Good news is the weather looks great and I'll be going the other way ,away from that mess I plan to ride Sunday.

OUCH!  OUCH!  And a few folks kid me about my ATGATT mentality. You just never know when your going down so be prepaired the best you can for whatever happens. And live with your desicions. I would rather sweat than bleed. but then again I understand, so You ride your Ride and I will ride mine. Don't ride faster than your Angels can Fly.

That bike slid maybe 2 or 3 feet away from the riders before it started to turn in.......had to be going pretty slow. The last time we were at the Dragon, the hardest part of the ride was being behind a pack of HD riders going so slow you couldnt lean for fear of falling over............maybe insufficient speed to hold that baby up in a lean was the culprit here. At least the bikes in front of us must have got the memo, they werent hardly leaning at all, kind of counter leaning like you do in a parking lot. Eventually they pulled over to let a couple cars and our bikes go by

Boxer rebellion, the Holy Child. They all pay their rent. But none together can testify to the rhythm of a road well bent. Saddles and zip codes, passports and gates, the Jones' keep. In August the water is trickling, in April it's furious deep.
