    North Carolina ride for November

    Several of us are planning a ride up to the Franklin NC area on November the 14th~ 17th weather permitting. We will be leaving Savannah and arriving in Franklin on the afternoon of the the 14th. This is one of my favorite times to ride up there because all the leaves will be gone and so will the leaf peepers. It can be a little chilly but there is nothing like having the roads to ourselves. Let me know if you have any interest in joining us. We will cover a lot of the famous and not so famous roads that are truly amazing!

    Careful what you wish for there DeerSlayer

    What I envision for this ride is Big Dawg and his son, Skip, riding at a level a bit beyond "spirited". Whoever joins this group will definitely need to keep "ride your own ride" in mind. Still, if the weather cooperates, this should be one great ride for all who love the "twisties".

    I'd really love to but unfortunately I have a previous commitment for those dates. Other wise I'd be there with you.

    I have not called the Microtel in Franklin yet but in November the rates should be cheap. It is the perfect base camp for us. At the moment, it looks like we 4 goldwings committed, 2 maybe's on F6B's and my son on his sportbike. We will make the call on the weather as times gets closer

    Successful people build each other up. They motivate, inspire and push each other. Unsuccessful people just hate, blame and complain.

    Well, Big Dawg, I guess you're about ready for your Franklin/Dragon trip. I hope you and Skip have a safe and fun time. Sorry I couldn't join you guys up there. That Gerbing heated gear is looking pretty good about now I bet! BR-R-R-R
