It's about time......
Geeze, I can make it a business trip. All I have to do is pack some goodies in a saddlebag and it's all tax deductible........
I'm game for anywhere, anytime, except probably the first week in may and the first week in July and the third week in August 'cause I'll be haying, but if it comes about on any of those weeks, I'll put 'business' before business and come anyway.
Jack was talking about going out to Cheyenne and seeing his sheep, but he may change his mind.
If I had my druthers, I'd do Maggie Valley, The Dragon and the Cherahola Skyway (I think I spelled it right). Ed & Carol and myself stayed in Maggie Valley on the way to Nashville last year and Maggie Valley is really biker friendly plus you have the Blue Ridge Parkway right there as well as the Smokies. I believe I can get the owner of the motel where we stayed to reserve the place for us. He's a biker too. Nice place, really clean, right on the main drag. He even provides a hose and soap and towels to wash your bike with. You have the Dragon to drag your pegs on, the Skyway for a more relaxed ride and the Parkway for a nice ride at 45 per and fantastic views at every turn. If you look in my album, you'll find lots of pictures of Maggie Valley and the Parkway. That area, while a bit commercial is light years more relaxed than Nashville.
Again, that's my preference but I'll ride anywhere even if the Rock makes part of the trip on the trailer.
