Sounds fun, a bit to far for me though. I sadly don't have that much vacation time available.

My buddy is coming down from Dallas late march and we are headed down close to the Mexican border for a few days of riding. I'll post some pictures of that. That's the best I can do

I made a post here that doesn't appear to have "stuck". In any case......
Mr Admin-type Sir!
I'm trying to clear the time for this. Unfortunately, my Gal is petrified to ride on back with me, so this might be a solo ride. If I leave on Thursday will I miss much? What part of the Crew is headed down for this? Thanks!

I'm planning to make the trip and yes solo. Already have hotel reservations but not sure if I'm riding the whole trip or trailering most of the way, it's a long ride around 1400 miles one way.

Hagger, with the divorce and selling the house and moving and everything, makes me afraid to commit when I probably shouldn't be. But Dammit I would hate to miss this one...if only for the chance to give Jimmy the TinKnocker some shit!

I get it, hell I'm not sure of anything anymore. I thought I would be able to make some of the previous trips but finances were always too low, not saying they are any better now but screw it I'm only going to live once and my body has decided it's broken so it may have to be now and not later. The wife said it was ok to go so there's that too lol.

The best I can hope for is her own Bike and we've started looking, but the starter machine she's looking for isn't going to want to take the kind of trips I'll want to be taking. But at least we could putt around here locally and get her involved at least a little bit.

The guys and gals that should be there are top notch 100%. You my friend have gelled in perfect with this group. I am heading down July 15, should be there by early evening, leaving following Saturday. I will more than likely trailer down with my buddy. Using his truck and trailer. He rides a fat boy, but can take the ribbing he will get. Lol. I rode last time but he does not have really any good way to take anything. I may suggest he use my travel pack the goes across fender. It's big, works great. We will see. I did not see a previous post you said that you posted!

I am going to be there. It will be a week to remember. Some of the best motorcycle rides on the east coast. The tale of the dragon, the moonshiner and many more great roads in the mountains of N.C. and Tenn. It will be a pretty mild and easy going bunch Hell we are too damn old to get too rowdy.LOL
Kahn you should come on down you will have a great time. You could trailer the bike there. All the roads are curvy so if your lady is afraid to ride 2 up with you she will not enjoy these roads. Sorry.

Sorry. I talked some more with her. She has a pickup and hitch. Hell, I think my Jeep has a hitch. We're gonna look for a trailer. that would solve one problem. If she does come down I'll just worry about finding her stuff to do while I'm out riding. This might maybe work out O-K.

Take a day, go to Ashville to the Biltmore. This is worth the drive on its own.

I know if we can manage to come I'm going to probably trailer mine as well.

Well Hell Sikotic, Ellie's easy to get along with. If they want to travel out into the "wild" together that would be great. AND....one less thing to worry about.

Fantastic place for bikers to stay Jimmy looks like he'd bust you a new one if you get out of line! There's a ton of Mean Streak experience in that line-up for sure! PS Tell me, just what are the odds you guys would wear the SAME t-shirts to the event? The mind boggles........

It's big, works great. We will see. I did not see a previous post you said that you posted! Kahn 7 years ago I put my Wife on a little Suzuki 73 GT185 Little 2 stroke thing ran good did a few 100 milers with it way under powered However she did learn the mech of riding on that machine. Following year I put her on one of my Old Gpz 550s and that's when I knew she was gonna be fine. We went to the M/C Show in NYC and the new 900 custom Vulcan had just hit the scene she fell in love with that bike. So that summer we picked her up a very slightly used 07 900 Custom only had 900 miles on it She rocked that for a year. But now we were taking way longer trips and that little 900 would just scream on the highway. So I gave her the Meanie and sold the 900. Then I bought my V2K and I gotta tell you there are times she goes thru a corner faster then I would think was safe and comes out the other side every time. Just a little FYI on how I got Lisa running with the big Boy's it's something we share now and has made our life together way more enjoyable. Well that and the fact i quit drinking almost 8 years ago. LOL

Question for Admin or anybody who knows? Does the motel have room to store a Trailer somewhere? That could be a real pain in the ass if you had to store the trailer elsewhere.

Really looking forward to meeting some of youse guys. Ellie's coming down with me but she won't be on the Bike for any runs. What are some of the other attractions down there she could do while we're in the wind?
We got belted with a snowstorm last week but forecasts this week show a steady rise in temps until Sat. There's still a ton of sand and salt on the roads up here but I've got a fever to bust out and start riding. We need one really good pounding rain to clear up some of this crap.
