Are you talking about a ride in general or going to the BRP owner's event next week?
"Alone"?

69268I'm leaving on the 11th or 12th? My motel reservations start on the 12th but I wanted to get there a day early to do some touring without having to keep up with a group ride so I can take proper bathroom breaks.

Your brain is mush cause it gets overheated wearing that black jacket in the hot sun. :gaah:
Get you a cooling vest and a light colored riding jacket!

Pretty good country style buffet place just into Cherokee from MV called Grandma's Kitchen. All you can eat southern style food, not fancy, not expensive, not digestible! Just kidding about the last part, it is southern food after all.

If Daisyjoe gets her '13 RT un vibrated we will assign the Honor of "Leader of the Pack" to her.
Heck even if she shows up on her trusty RS she will Lead!

Last word, Daisyjoe went down to the Dealership and insisted that vibration is not an accessory with the RT so they swapped out tires and now no vibes but good ones!

Daisyjoe
06-08-2013, 12:01 AM
Oh yeah:yes: Vibrations gone. The bike is such a joy to ride now.

Me? Lead? No problem, you just might not want to follow:yikes::shocked::shocked:. Can't wait to fellowship with you guys next week.

Planned a new route up I-575 up and over. Just didn't want to deal with I-85 and that route.
Leaving early Tuesday and staying one night at the Flaming Arrow Campground off US441. Then on the Maggie Valley to stay at the Alamo Motel till early Saturday morning where I'll head up to Lamont's.

Wanted to get in some early riding. Sharon "Threefeet" and I have reservations for Wednesday evening for dinner at the Hemlock Inn in Bryson City, NC. Yum! Can't wait for that!

See y'all up there!

Leaving from Ellijay around noon on Wednesday, going north on 515 up through Blueridge.

Iwas thinking of leaving Waleska about 9, which would put me in Ellijay's Walmart shopping center about 10:15. I'll stop and look around the gas station and see if anyone is hanging out. Text me if you think you would be ready then or thereabouts. 404-401-0750
Thanks

Cafe Rel. Yummy. And real gas at Hot Spot too. If you guys take 28 out of Franklin, they are paving and some slow areas. No need to contribute to the local fund, although we could use it.

Keith,
Please have some respecr for those of us in the upper numbers. I'll be ok as long as my diaper doesn't overflow. You will have the pleasure of having me and maybe the Ellijay folks join you and the caravan for lunch and the grand entrance into MV. Thanks for posting this. I owe Mark a beverage or two for our Memorial Day ride.
