Wish I would have had the chance to meet you and BT Donkey.

I wished I could have met you guys too on Thursday.
We never got wet Friday as we headed up to Chattanooga and had gotten almost 50 miles into the Trail of Tears ride back when it started.

bamavulcandave · 09-21-2009

BTW, that's two good pics of you and Martin on your bikes.
I have a good pic of me from last year there.

TriXie · 09-21-2009

Great pics, Debbie...wasn't it FUN?!!

Glad you got to meet up with some of the other forum members too...this place is GREAT!!

skipsaxe · 09-21-2009

Hey Deb- Looking good you two. Sorry but rain seems to be the norm this year

DebbieW · 09-21-2009

One good thing about the rain. I now know that I can ride in the worst torrential downpour (although it's really painful). Also, the fog was no picnic either. It was really bad in spots and I was pretty nervous that I would run into a bear or deer and be unable to brace for the impact.

NJ roads aren't going to do it for me anymore.

Feel free to post it. Would love to see it.

Got our pictures uploaded. No dragon pics yet though. Haven't checked the sites. We had a great time meeting everyone on Thursday night. Only two slight rain showers on the way over. Friday we did the dragon then up to Gatlinburg for lunch at Bubba Gump's. Saturday we did the dragon again and the Cherahola. Both days we had some rain in the late afternoon, but it was scattered. Sunday coming home was more wet, but only about half the trip. Given the forecasts, we got lucky and had a great time.

Here's pics we took:

Wow!!
that's a really hot looking katana that's for sale...that minor little damage doesn't even distract much from the looks of it!!

NCDave · 09-21-2009

yeah...the owner made one little mistake. Sometimes that's all it takes.

You guys made it home ok? it rained on us until close to Shelby.

Did you get any pics?

Yeah, it is. I've been using it for over a year now. No complaints.

Yep. it's the one down the hill by the rental houses. The one up front was full of harleys.

wild_deuce03 · 09-23-2009

Those are some great pics Dave. Guess I'll have to look forward to next year.

tricker · 09-23-2009
