Just got an offer from a friend to use their place just 23 miles from Cherokee, no charge. Offered a list of local eating places and nice rides also. Now that is what you call "Friends" :2thumbs:. Now to convince my son to make the ride on the RS. :chat:

My dilemma has been resolved. I will ride up as planned with the FL Express and will stay at Mike's in Atlanta from the 16th on and plan to meet up with the Express for the ride home on Sunday. Mike and I will make the one and a half hour ride to Maggie Valley each day. My issues are resolved and Maggie Valley here we come! :2thumbs:

I really appreciate the offer but just firmed up accommodations. You are another example of the brotherhood of Spyder Ryders. Look forward to seeing you again at Maggie Valley and Lamont's. Thanks again for the offer.

I'll be attending a Harley Rally in Kansas City from 5/9 thru 5/12. Leaving KC for Maggie Valley on the 12th. Don't know the route I'll be taking to get to MV but I'll have three days to get there so I'll make it a leisurely ride.
Anyone coming from the West? Maybe we could hook up.
