Just thought I'd let you guys know that Maggie Valley and the surrounding area are still there and gorgous as ever (as if there was a doubt). I rode down there this past weekend to meet some family in Chimney Rock, NC just SE of Asheville and rode through that whole area and man it was awesome! Cold as all get out, but worth it. That entire area is amazing, and I even got to try out the ABS on my Roadster when a semi slammed on his brakes in front of me and I'm proud to report, it works
Yep, It's still here, I live about 15 minutes from Chimney Rock, some of the best riding in the country is right out my door! I too can attest that the ABS works, had a situation a few months back in Virginia where an old guy in a pickup pulled right in front of me.
