    Default Video of Hwy 209 near Hot Springs, NC

    Some footage from our ride from Hot Springs, NC earlier this week.

    Rather carve than cruise.

    We did that ride last year at the owners event. Now that Bruisersbay rides her own Spyder, we'll have to do it again. Really nice ride and really nice video. Who did the song? We both liked that arrangement.

    WOW! Beautiful road - Beautiful ride - Wonderful video! I even liked the music and that's a rarity for me since I'm a traditional country music and bluegrass fan. I love Ralph Stanley's version of Wayfaring Pilgrim but this version is every bit as good. Thanks for posting.
