Michael, who are you riding there with? We're leaving Columbus at 6am. If you leave a bit earlier, haul down 301 to 71, you can roll with the four of us heading from Columbus... I grew up in Elyria and I'll be visiting this weekend, we should get a beer! | ||

Won't be long now. Y'all will have to ride slow so I can keep up. My knee is healing well, but still ain't fully flexible. | ||

DJ, Paint_shaker, and twintour I’m probably going to get their wed night as well but I called two and their not going to have bathrooms open by than. I guess we’ll just have to use the gas station or something. | ||
| Nevrenuf |

Im pitching a tent just thinking about riding DRY mountain roads under SUNNY skies. Lets all hope and pray that my dowel "rod" isnt wrong! Paul, there should be plenty of trees around. #2 will require some "finesse" though. Grab the nearest rabbit..... (Message edited by TORQUEMONSTER on March 21, 2008) | ||

Hey Jim, Let's do a run up Richard Russell and Brasstown Bald, nice riding, and excellent places to stop and take in the view. | ||

| Spiderman |

| Wolfridgerider |

Worst case scenario on weather: Hanging out with a bunch of nuts in the rain, TWO lodge cooking to be et, self-medicating (knowhutImean,Vern?), and waiting/resting for the next day of 'shine. Or doing the tourist thing over in Helen despite the rain. Check all gear for weatherproofing, PUT ON and check rainsuits, clean/waterproof riding boots, and so on. I kinda like riding in the rain if I'm prepared. Much more sightseeing to be done at lower speeds, curves are enjoyable and more easily studied too. Ready to go, RAIN AND SHINE!! BTW folks- I have updated my kitchen manager here at Smoky Mountain H-D/Buell to expect around 2 dozen riders passing thru- post to the "Rendezvous in Maryville" thread if y'all can stop by. "Bueller's Brunch" will be served from 10ish to 1PM, kickstands up by 1 so we can get a good ride in to TWO before dark-thirty.   | ||

Hey Glitch, now that you are injured, maybe I can keep up with you! HA! | ||
| Thumper74 |
We can have ass drag races! I'm pretty quick on a slick floor, I haven't raced 'offroad' yet... | ||
| Stealthxb |

Is it me, or something in the air? Every time I open this thread it looks like that bike in the top picture is leaning more and more into that turn!?  | ||
| Oldog |
Glitch sounds like a plan, saturday after the Weigh in ? | ||
| Mikef5000 |
The same thing happened last year with the weather. I remember I was the one freaking out. Friday and saturday turned out beautiful. Sunday was rainy, but that didn't stop the riding (although it did stop the demo's). It will be a great time. | ||
| Ratyson |
I look at it this way; There is nothing I can do ABOUT the weather, but there are things I can do DURING the weather, be it good weather or bad weather. | ||

I vote drink for bad weather. It's worked well in the past. | ||
| Spiderman |
I vote drink for good weather as well | ||
| Etennuly |
OH GAWD!! What are we to do?  | ||
| Spiderman |
DRINK, DRANK, DRUNK! |
