I'm practicing. It's pretty easy around 80mph but I have some issues at slower speeds.

I talked to one fellow rider from Georgia that is going, but,are there any groups that are riding together from the Atlanta, Georgia area? Would be nice to have some fellow riders to go with on the way out and back. Just thought I would check.
Thanks,:icon_biggrin:

Y'all are killin me. Teach , I may have to translate for you at the rally. Dang my stomach hurts from laughing. I wonder if you can get Rosetta-Stone for Southern. ROTFLMAO.
At least the rally is here in the Dirty South, I'd certainly need a translator if it was gonna be up north. They sure couldn't understand me when I was on my trip this summer. Every time I asked for tea, they'd want to bring me water and a tea bag. What in the holy hell is that? If I wanted to work for my tea, I'd have stayed at home. You can't trust a person what drinks hot tea. Ewwwwwwww.
And then of course, there's those heathens like Shooter, who put vodka in their tea. It's an abomination.
Hey , let's don't get personal.
Does iced tea come with vodka in it?
You guys ever notice how complicated tea is?
Phantom,
Just wanted to let you know that I have my room booked for me and my wife. I am looking forward to meeting everyone and having a good ride.

See!!!! I'm telling ya , tea is complicated.
Then add an Arnold Palmer and you need a college degree, called a PHT.
It ain't complicated in Georgia. You ask for "tea." Not "iced" not "sweet" not nothing. Tea. The end. And they bring you a big ole glass of tea.

What part of the rock are you coming from? I'm in Oromocto,NB and you may pass by my area if so let me know and if there is time we can have a java. I just got back from Tennessee and the ride was nice. I'm not able to make the rally this year. What is your route down/ I may be able to save you some headaches. I'm also a Newf originally from Port aux Basques. Safe riding.

Hey Lloydmoore,
North East coast between Grand Falls and Gander.
Planning on crossing the border at St Stephens/Calais. That would keep me a little south of Oromocto I think. More generally the plan is to head down the east coast, swing west somewhere around Boston and then south again somewhere around Indianapolis. Although I generally do up a road plan for these trips I am keeping this trip more open ended as I am willing to stop or speed up, or swing east or west as required to stay in better weather.
A cool fall outlook could cancel the whole trip as I don't like the idea of beating back up into the NE wiping frost of the bike in the morning. Having done it when I had to I tend to steer clear of it now that I don't have to if you know what I mean. If we have to give up on this trip we have some alternates in mind.
However any insight you might have from your TN trip would be appreciated. I worked a short stint in Louisville KN a few years back so did a little bit of beating around, KN, TN. There is one highway between Louisville and Nashville (may have been some part of 65) that I used that I remember as a road bumper to bumper with transport trucks. I would love not to get caught on that.....it was painful enough in an SUV.....I am pretty sure it would be a constant ass pucker on bike.
If I happen to head by Oromocto I will give you a heads up and thanks for reaching out.
