SouthEastern Polar Bear Ride!!

If anyone interested in this we are planning to Ride EVERY Jan1, It's a min of 100mile distance.

Ride Route is as follows:

Hwy411 to "The Dragon" then to Murphy, North Carolina for Lunch, from there heading to our perspective homes..
If you're ever planning to ride "The Dragon" this is THE ONLY TIME I'll ever recommend it.

If anyone is interested please let me know.

We will meet/leave from Hardee's on Hwy411 Ocoee, Tennessee w/KSU at 10:30am. Thanks Goose

We are going to have a "Pelican Ride" down here...as long as the temps are about 70, much lower than that I will have to winterize my bike.

I may actually do a Trifecta ride...up to Stockton, AL on Dec 30, back to Brooksville, FL on NYE and NYD go to Sebastian Inlet. If anyone is up for any of these give me a shout.

Goose, I wish I hadn't planned these other rides or I'd be up there in a heart beat. Maybe some time before that I may venture up for a cool ride.

Tiger burger is only available in Tiger, GA....which I'm sure you have heard of. Great burger, ask Goose.
Big town...no traffic lights and only one stop sign, which most slow down and run.
Come up Mike....and bring Coach and I'll see you get one. :)

Y'all need to get out of all that sunshine anyway. Makes your arteries hard::)

+1 Dick on the TigerBurger, best burger in town! And the best riding around! We have been
talking about this one going down to NGa area, only thing is the RockSlide and getting over
that way? With Hwy64 being close it'll add an additional 75miles to the ride! But what the
heck I don't care. Dick last year on the ride it was in the 30's when we left out in the morning
but by the time we had got on the Skyway it was in the 50's, so you may have to put those
fur pantys on to keep warm!(haha)

I'm 'bout 80% in Goose. The temp. has no bearing on me. :) I do have a lunatic family that tends to get even more loony around this time of year. If I'm fortunate enough to survive "The 46th Annual Tripp's Dysfunctional Family Christmas", and the dagger woulds have healed in my back I'll be there! Put me down for a Tiger Burger too. I hope that ain't TMI.

Fur panties? Don't need no stinkin' furry panties!!

Not too sure about the "Mike the Deerslayer" though...... ;)

Hey Mike, you need one of those WOLO horns.
Haven't tried it on a deer crossing the road yet, but it sure scared the H___ out of a goat!!

MY PANTIES DON'T HAVE FUR! WOLO horns won't save you. Take it from me and two other guys I know,,,,, you don't see the deer that gets you. It happens quicker than you can bat an eye. I blinked and missed the whole dern thing! You have to take it like a man until your sliding down the asphalt screaming like a school girl watching your pride,and joy and labor of love cartwheeling down the highway. :)

Not sure of the ride route yet? Will have something posted soon
though. Last years ride over the Skyway and The Dragon was a
blast hardly anyone was out (imagine that!). If anyone is interested
please let me know as I will need to turn in the order
for the patches for this soon!
OK, Here's the ride route, last years riders wants to do the original route which is: From CherohalaMkt. in TellicoPlains, across CherohalaSkyway over into RobinsvilleN.C. for lunch, from there over through TheDragon, from there were coming back S.Hwy411 to VonoreT.N. to Hwy360 and back to TellicoPlains to the CherohalaMkt. where the ride will end.
Which I had mentioned earlier the ride was a blast! If I'm going to even ride the TheDragon this is the best time I've ever had, hardly anyone is there this time of the year.
The ride will pull out from the CherohalaMkt at 10am and returning there 4pm? (Depending how many stops we make)
For the ones who would want to ride up there with the Cleveland Riders we are meeting at Hardees on Kieth St. beside TheTractorSupplyCo. and pulling out no later than 9am.
And Yes DKDixie, I will have my fur pantys on! :)

Kaw-Head Mike, let me know your route.
I'll ride over to Tellico Plains or Robbinsville with you.
Again, providing the weather is at least halfway decent.
