I tried to sneak out there for a photo op but they were on me. Got this though, hopefully they get that underpass BS done soon

Tell them you're homeless and take a poop on the sidewalk, they'll probably leave you alone then. Nice job, BTW. The bike is as well proportioned as any I've seen.
Yea for sure, before the snow flys. Which could be any time now
It certainly is on its way! I'll get ahold of ya when I get back to MT! Finally made the trek to the south this week! Just rode Tail of the Dragon today! Such a fun weekYea for sure, before the snow flys. Which could be any time now
Hope you had good weather on the "Tail of the Dragon". The Smokies Rally rode it 2 weeks ago. I enjoy the first 3 miles going either way, then see the "8 miles to go sign" and say to myself "sheesh". Foothills Parkway and Terahalla (?) Parkway are less intense and more my speed. All beautiful riding. Did you stop at a Dollar General or eat at a Waffle House?
You have to stop at the Dollar General to get something nice for your bride.Hope you had good weather on the "Tail of the Dragon". The Smokies Rally rode it 2 weeks ago.

I was pleasantly surprised with Dollar General. Seems to be a general store with tons of variety crammed into a small footprint. Sam Drucker would be proud.
Didn't stop at the dollar general, but the weather was absolutely perfect! I can honestly say I rode my Indian Scout the hardest I ever have there, left some of my exhaust and pegs there, scraped em down pretty good! So much fun!

If you scraped pegs and exhaust on ''the Dragon" (esp on a Scout), well....you're just f'n crazy
You, and maybe I, might have scraped some bits 30 years ago, not anymore for me.If you scraped pegs and exhaust on ''the Dragon" (esp on a Scout), well....you're just f'n crazy
Glad you had a good time, riding is always an adventure. The Ozarks Rally in May has similar roads out of Mountain View Arkansas and of course the Smokies Rally in Sept visits the Tail the last 2 years I participated. Consider attending one or the other for great riding, good company and lots of long stories.Didn't stop at the dollar general, but the weather was absolutely perfect!

It's an annual trip me and a few vet buddies do every year, always somewhere different. Actually trailered out to Columbus OH to meet the gang, then rode south to Asheville over the last few days...really cool riding out here. Really enjoyed the 555 (triple nickel) highway in southern OH as well.
Semper fi, regardless the brannch...Here the "battle damage" on the scout. Haha, smiles per gallon.... enough said

Cool...IMO, the triple nickle (OH) and the "Dragon" are two of the most technical rides.
Ya, the triple nickel really surprised me! Such a fun ride and not a soul in sight on Wednesday when we went through, so fun!
Two marine pilots, and one prior army helo-mechanic (me). It's a ragtag bunch but we have funSemper fi, regardless the brannch...
Two Marine pilots in one place? How do they find room for their testicles?
