We had ( 4 ) bikes show-up for todays ride to the Mennonite Community of Muddy Pond, Tennessee. This shot was taken on the Clinch River just outside of Kingston, Tennessee.



I've seen alot of people that thought they were cool , but then again Lord I've seen alot of fools.

We made a detour off Hwy. 70 to check out the view from Roosevelt Mountain that overlooks Rockwood, Tennessee.

This fire tower was built in 1932 a couple years ago a decent abandoned home was just to the right of it but the rednecks burned it down last year  >:(

I must say it was a adrenaline RUSH going to the top about 80 % of the steps are rotten or gone  :o    I guess thats why they have the fence with razor wire around it  :-\  Shot of the bike's from the fire tower.The star can be seen at night from I-40 from mm# 340 to 336 going west bound.

We had a great ride today with cool temps and more important no rain. No use going to Muddy Pond on a sunday all the businesses are closed ( we never thought about that ) at any rate it was a great day for motorcycling.

I took these shots after we came off the Cumberland Plateau the yellows and reds are starting to pop on the Cumberland Plateau...Picture's taken on Hwy.62 from the bridge that crosses The Obed River....Folks coming to " The Fall Color Ride " I think we picked a good time this year the foliage colors should be excellent next weekend in the Carolina mountains.

The drought is over for us all the lakes went full pool this year in fact they started the draw down already to prepare for winter rains.
