I led my club on our third Sunday of the month ride today.  

It was 38 degrees this morning and we had 10 bikes starting out.  Some Harleys, some sport bikes, and of course a Valkyrie cooldude





We took back roads up to Ga. 60 past the old T.W.O. to ride across Wolfpen Gap.





This ugly mug is my Harley ridin' buddy Chris who can ride as good as anyone I know.



We headed up to Richard Russell Pky. to get a picture at the ice wall.





There were ice climbers there....one guy told me I was crazy for riding in this cold.  Take a look and tell me who the crazy one is  Grin







Gerbings made the weather a non factor.

Another great day sharing the wind and memories from the seat of a Valk. Smiley

Nice ride report Paul ...Great pictures  cooldude
Anyone that thinks a Harley can't run the twisties has never rode with Chris , T-bird or Big Al. I think I'm headin' out in the morning for The Dragon to see if I can find my cool hat lost around Greg's crash site .

No Joe, I have not as of date. I need to get off my ass as time is working on me. I will be 77 in March and holding my own as of now. You never know when "older age will raise it`s ugly head and bite you in the ASS". I do ride with all you guys in every report that is posted and enjoy them all.  cooldude RJ and I are doing the same, as some others. Ride On guys and enjoy.  Wink
