I will be leaving the McDonald's at 9:00am Exit 82 on I-77 for a ride down the Blue Ridge Parkway to Boone. Will have lunch at the Applebee's on Rt 321 between Blowing Rock and Boone at 12:00.

Have another rider from Hickory tentatively meeting me there. Anyone who would like to join me for the ride down or for lunch is sure welcome.

i had the brp recall done on the dps. in that recall they did a ecm remap supposedly and those of us with aftermarket pipes are having problems with our bikes. mine ran great for 13500 miles with no issues until they did the software update and now it runs terrible. i am hoping it doesn't act up tomorrow. we uplugged the battery overnight some says that resets the computer and makes it run better. i'll find out tomorrow! we will meet you at applebees by noon. i'll pm my cell phone number just in case something happens and you all run later or we run late.
