Sorry about you being the only ones to go last year. I know we cancelled some due to - and some due to bad weather, but I will make a point of it not to cancel future meet and greets unless I'm dead, just in case someone can show up. I apologize if you didnt know it was cancelled ahead of time. See you this March. Do you rent a bike f you fly and ride or what?

Nothing wrong with tire kicking. I get in trouble when I take test rides.

Post by: Motormike on March 20, 2021, 08:17:02 PM: The weather man says the the frog-strangler is scheduled for Thursday night through Friday morning. If the weather blows through early enough, I'll ride down Friday afternoon, but most likely Saturday morning.

Looks like Friday will be nice. Saturday the chance of rain increases. And Sunday will likely rain.
I'll pack rain gear.

Post by: Wayne Orwig on March 26, 2021, 11:44:19 AM: Well, North Georgia got blasted by lots of rain, and even tornados. But now it is 70F, and the sun came out. So today and tomorrow should be good.
If life doesn't drag me down I will be there.

Riding in sunshine and eating good food.
Still remember that "cold butt" ride approx 7yrs ago with Muley,Wayne,Bill Hagon and the gang in these very same mountains. Thanks for the memories guys..

Awesome! Been riding down on the coast which is pretty boring and reminds me how happy I am to no longer be living in Florida.

Just got in, 275 backroad miles. I'm beat. Saw some goofy sights including this Ninja with car tire riding the mountain roads.

Cheaha, highest point in Alabama. Plenty of riders out doing there thing.
Even had a dude on a Yamaha school me in the fact that Guzzi started off as a tractor factory. Wow! Lol.

Inadvertently ended up riding 15 miles of the Skyway Motorway (unpaved service roads) pretty much knocking my fillings loose! But thankfully, this becomes paved and is known as the TalladegaScenic Byway (sort of a mini- Blue Ridge Parkway, great riding!)
