    Made it home Saturday around 7 PM. Didn't make the BBQ but had a great time at the OE. Already looking forward to next year. Met lots of awesome people and the area was beautiful. Put around 1300 miles on my new RTS. It ran like a champ, NO problems.

    Hubby (Tobor 9) and I got in about 30 mins. ago. Sitting in my chair having a very needed cup of coffee while he unloads the bikes. I have a VERY well trained hubby!!! We are getting up at 5am Mon. morning and leaving about 6am to head to Huntsville, AL in the Pilot. Originally wanted to take the bikes and drive straight home from Huntsville to Charleston but I came to the conclusion that it would be too much for me. Oh well!!! Had a GREAT time at the Event and the BBQ. It was really wonderful meeting and putting faces to the names of people that I talk with!!!

    Default Home Safe From Maggie Valley Check-in....

    Didn't make it to the owners event but made it to Lamont's just in time to see everyone leaving on the way there. Me, my daughter Samantha and my wife Robin stopped by on the way home from the family vacation Myrtle Beach, SC hoping to score some BBQ and visit.

    We were the ones that showed up in a big funny looking grey four wheeled vehicle called a Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 Super Crew for those of you wondering why such a vehicle showed at a Spyder event!

    By the time we arrive most were gone and there was no food in sight so we said hi to those we knew and found a hotel for the night nearby.

    Sorry we missed everyone. Oh and we just made it home today.

    Got home late last night (10:30 pm) from Lamont's BBQ. The original plan was to ride a few hours and spend the night somewhere and finish up today. We were making such good time, we rode straight through. There's no place like home!

    Hey Firefly!
    Some Girl and I made it all the way home without using GPS! We can actually read maps that don't talk...and...like I've said many times...the signs are always right!

    Number One: 2008 Yellow GS SM5. I love my Spyder.
    Number Two: 2012 RT-S Limited (the poop colored RT) I still have Number One, but Some Girl made me buy Number Two...
