Penny wanted to put some miles on her new RT Limited today so we took my Timeless Black and her Lava Bronze and headed north this morning. 41 degrees at 8:30 ... good thing we had warm stuff on. Took a couple of hours to get to Dahlonega from our house and then we headed north on highway 60 to Blue Ridge. 60 is an awesome road that winds north through two national forests. I think it rivals highway 129 (the dragon) for sweepers and scenery.
By the time we hit Suches, known as the valley above the clouds the temp warmed up to mid fifties. Hit Blue Ridge just after noon and visited Danielles Deli http://blueridgemountains.com/members/ID8033 for lunch. They have the most awesome Boars Head foot longs and Danielle is also awesome. She is French and is a former BMW test driver who knows her motorcycles. She had a ton of questions about Spyders and my wife sat her on the machine and pretty much sold her one on the spot. Danielle rewarded us with warm home made Creme Brule peach pie and home made ice cream..... can't beat that combo.
Later we papered the main drag with American Express card receipts as we loaded the bikes with goodies from the shops.
Got home at 6pm....great ride.... great day.... great food.... great machines. Penny now has 400 miles on it!
