I think we will make it home sooner or later, Devl is doing so well on her Spyder we decided to leave Maggie Valley via the Blue Ridge Parkway.

Had a good time too at the BBQ. Devl won a $50 cert. from Spyderpops and got those heat shields installed. They work great thanks Spyderpops.

Nice to hear she won the Spyderpops gift certificate. Hope you can stay dry or at least drier than we were coming home. I never, ever want to ride in that much rain again.

Enjoy your ride and be safe. Sorry we didn't get to talk more at Lamont's BBQ. I am happy you won a door prize from SpyderPops, he is a great guy. Take lots of photos, I really enjoy your posts and your commentary on your rides.

We're about on the same route, but a couple of days behind. Hope to be in Cumberland tomorrow night, but tomorrow's weather is iffy. Enjoyed your pictures on the Parkway. Nancy refuses to take any while we are riding. Much of the time she just closes her eyes if the edge is too close and too empty. nojoke

Nice pictures thanks for sharing. I hope you have good weather for the rest of your trip and don't get the severe storms that we are having here in Michigan right now.

Glad you and Hotglue made it home safe too...you guys were the highlight of our trip. Seeing Don and Tracy again was a big bonus. Can't wait for InZane XI next month.
