made it home------before any serious rain----and that's a good thing.
I did have a delay in leaving the Red Roof Inn----
I had two trees growing out of the RT and brochures stuck in every crack.
It took forever to put them back in the correct place on the rack ----- I wonder who may have done that.

Left Saturday morning early. Got home about 2. Nice cool ride. Just a touch of rain. Nice to see everyone. Had a great time.

Made it Home Saturday evening. Left Mountain Motorsports at 4:!5 when it started sprinkling. Thought I would race the rain east but ran into a batch climbing the mountains, and another east of Asheville.

Tell you what, I-40 is a serious water course in the rain. I forgot about that. I've run the Spyder through some serious rain and standing water before, but the standing water on I-40 through the mountains is deep! Determined that the Spyder fronts after 12k are a bit more hydroplaney... and the new Kuhmo I put on feels about the same as the Kenda in standing water.

Other than a jeep that splashed me with a wall of water there were no hairy moments and I was generally passing traffic. I still think the cagers must either think I'm nuts or that the Spyder is an awesome machine in the rain. I also passed numerous bikes that pulled over under the bridges... Again, I hope they are thinking how awesome it would be to have a great ride like the Spyder for the rain.

Oh.. yeah...Obviously I made it home safe.

I left Red roof inn Sunday morning about 9:30am Straight down 441 in the rain. I was going to hang for a couple more days but checked the weather and made my escape. Had the rain suit on all day but really just light rain for the most part. I called it a night in Gainesville around 8:30pm when I saw big storms still in Tampa area. A dry ride home on Monday morning! Spyder ran great in the rain. It likes the cooler temps.
It did get "rear wheel steering" (rear hydroplaned)at about 55-60 in the deep water but it felt very controlled.
