I took the day off from my home project and went for a good all day ride by myself..
I went to Port Dover for the Fri 13th meet, then to Buffalo NY, then to Niagara Falls NY to pick up some parts I had ordered,and then home. A total of 12 hours and 330 miles. There was a good frost when I left this morning and 28F, but it turned out nice.

Beautiful day in Huntsville. AL today so I rode my bike to work. I'd rather have just kept going but I had to stop. Hopefully the weekend will be as nice and I'll be able to get a real ride in. :cool:

A perfect riding day in the hills!
Left West Knox about 9AM to Lenoir City across the dam to Ashley Chapel to the Dragon. To Robbinsville to Wayah Rd to lunch in Franklin. 28 all the way back to the Dragon and home. Only about 270 miles but soooo twisty it took 7 hours! The Dragon has become one of the worst roads in the area. Everybody rides it (Ma & Pa in the SUV at 15mph)! Unfortunately it’s the shortcut between east TN and west NC south of the GSMNP. It’s very slow! Wayah Rd is one of the best mc roads anywhere! Those of you going to the SE rally in Townsend should consider this one. |

1st ride yesterday. 170 miles round to mom and dad's. Bike is running great with the new pipes and all the other mods I did last 2 winters ago. I have about 6 weeks to get enough butt time so the trip to Utah for the rally doesn't kill me.
