That sucks Jeremy. Hopefully you can make it for a bit. If not we will be in Nashville that Sunday/Monday and we need to get together. |

I may take you up on that Squids. Just didn't want to take up a slot for someone at the cabin who will be able to spend more time there. Initial estimate from the roof guy: $1,948 Meet with the adjuster tomorrow. |

Aahhh! Adjuster! Just like chiropractic, may the adjustments ever be in your favor. Lodge room #3 is mine, beds so far are claimed by me, Micah, and you, so gitcheraiss down here! Still riding that old S1, IIRC? If things work out, hopefully we can work up a critical mass of idjits, including me, Micah, Graham, Tim, Jen, Tom B., Barker, et al, to have a good time in Nashvegas... Disclaimer: I was born and raised in Nashville, generally on the east side of Davidson County/West Wilson County, moved away in 1990. I know all the roads and ways around the city, but everything has changed. Been wanting to be a "tourist" for some time now... |

Wolf, is anyone doing the new MSF curriculum they were talking about a few years back? I sounded almost like a battletrax setup, like something beyond the advanced class. |

Advanced Rider Course (ARC) What it's all About The Advanced Rider Course (ARC) is a relatively new offering from the Motorcycle Safety Foundation and Motorcycle Ohio. The ARC is a one-day course that complements an experienced rider’s basic skills and helps with personal risk assessment. It includes a fast-paced classroom segment with several interactive activities to improve perception and hazard awareness. Range exercises enhance both basic skills and crash avoidance skills. Improving braking and cornering finesse is emphasized. The ARC starts in a small-group, discussion-oriented classroom session, moves to the range (parking lot) for riding exercises, and ends back in the classroom. There are limited offerings of the ARC with a pool of select instructors who are certified to conduct the course and a link for ya.... http://www.motorcycle.ohio.gov/advanced_rider.stm |

Referencing the snowy picture of TWoS above, here's a photo from the area of another regular Buell meet, "Buells in the Alps" at Little Switzerland, NC, taken this morning:
The is the Little Switzerland Cafe where we usually have Saturday lunch at the meet. |

Just got off the phone with Mary at TWoS, got lodge room #3 set up for Fri/Sat, maybe Sunday if needed- so far it's me and Micah, hopefully Jeremy can make it too! If not, I'll have a 3rd bed for someone... Looking out at all the dang snow now, can't WAIT to get back in the saddle again!!! BTW, Mary said they're planning on getting the kitchen online with our group coming... |

After having my out of office dates (3/19-3/23) in the signature line of my work email for the last 4 weeks, my customer ask me to book travel with them to the UK on that Monday 3/16 for the week. I about spit my coffee out all over the screen this morning. After some quick thinking and a lot of BS, I managed to get them to rethink the travel to the UK and push it out to the 1st week of April. ~ Disaster Avoided ~ |

OK- I was sleeping in a bit this morning, got to wakefulness, heard someone ride by on a motorcycle!!! Dang if right now, it's almost 70 degrees, with a little sun! Of course, overnight tonite is when our next winter weather event starts, with freezing rain and temps down to the teens again... Radar shows precip already heading this way, shooting OVER Knoxville- wonder if I could have a few hours of decency from Ma Nature to ride before the crap hits... please, Ma, PLEASE!! Mike, thanks for that glimmer of hope! I was already thinking about my rain gear though... |

C3 Central secured and paid for... Trailer hitch installed on the Journey... Two new tires ordered for the M2... I'd say we're ready! Can't wait to be back in Suches again and see everyone!! |

Looks like rain in Suches all next week. Hopefully that means it will all be "used up" before the following weekend! |
