    Western North Carolina Mountains

    I can’t thank Jimmy enough for allowing me to tag along with his group through the Western North Carolina mountains today.

    I pulled into my garage with exactly 300 miles for the day. 300 glorious, breath-taking, amazing miles. As many times as I’ve ridden in that area, I have never experienced a ride like the one Jimmy led us on today.

    Thank you so much Jimmy for the riding advice! My poor little Gremlin bell got quite a workout today. Thanks for waiting on me at the stop signs!! I

    And although we didn’t have to dodge any horse poo, mules and buggies, or a nursing home escapee on a hoverround Dave Johnson/Patti Thompson/James Thompson OR dogs, rabid foxes, or toilet paper Suezanna Settle/Anna Brown/Tony Saddy we did have to do some dodging.

    All told, we dodged many patches of gravel, several sand piles, 14 SUVs, 31 Japanese sedans, and two Harleys. And although I wasn’t on the ride yesterday, I understand they had to dodge a line of approximately 50 Jeeps.

    Thanks again! I look forward to riding with y’all again!

    Oh and we saw a black F6B on the road heading into Hot Springs. Riding two-up?

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

    Tony You are alluding to me as dangerous and I don't appreciate it

    I am proud to say that this weekend, we covered about 600 miles of some of the twistiest roads in Western North Carolina, those who rode with our group listened and rode their own ride, I worked with Steve and Teach and their improvement was remarkable. The pork chops on the green egg were off the chart and the after dinner bourbon tasting was even better.
