GREAT week in G'burg

[irish2themax]

I am so glad I made the trip to Gatlinburg this year despite the rainy ride there and back. Staurday was 55F and a torrential downpour all the way to Wytheville VA where I met an old friend for dinner. Rode the entire way with my flashers on and never got above 50 mph. Rain was so heavy you couldn't see standing water and had a few hydroplaning challenges. Two hours after getting there, my fingers were still wrinkled!

I met some of the most fantastic people...far too many to mention except for some jerk named BMXGene. What a tool that guy is!! :roflblack:

Looking forward to meeting more on the Covered Bridge ride in PA next month.

My sincere thanks to Lamont for being such a gracious host for the BBQ. I've read several posts that likened it to a family reunion and they are spot on!! SpyderTalk may call it a Spyder Nation but it will always be a Spyder family to me.

Well we just got back home to California at about 6PM local time today. We had to cut our trip short in Gatlinburg and headed out at around 7AM last Thursday morning. We had such a great trip and we're beat!! It was great to meet all of you and I have lots of stories and photos to share... right now I am wiped and too tired to do much. But I had to at least post up and let people know we made it home safe.
