Did I hear of someone bringing a tire changer? Maybe it was someone who lived near Suches, GA? |

went up to Suches yesterday to do a little pre-badness run and had a great time. road reports are hwy 60 both north and south of suches are mostly clear with whatever gravel out there mostly on the edges of the road. Wolf pen gap (180) was clear with no gravel on the south bound lanes and one curve just past the lake traveling north with a pretty good bit of gravel mid turn in it. So if traveling north be aware. Po-Po presence was on 129 with both local and GSP starting mid afternoon ( the morning run was clear from what I saw). We had 2 of our riders go down yesterday unfortunately, one low side on 129, just went in a little too hot, the other was contact with the gaurd rail after running out of road on 60. both parties were in good spirits, with one being able to complete the day of riding. The weather was absolutely beautiful with a good crowd all day at Dales soaking in the sunshine and enjoying the sites of fellow riders. see yall next weekend Deadduck |

If you hit town Wednesday night, you are welcome to run with Watrousmark and me on Thursday morning to Maryville for lunch and then a 20-25 member run down Deal's, Cherohala, and on to Suches Thursday night where several of us are going to descend on Dahlonega for dinner. |

If all goes well with packing, C3 will also have a tire changer. It attaches to the hitch on my truck, so it will be on-site. |

I was on my big dirt bike 5 hours on Saturday. Full gear with motocross boots...'course I was often running over a hundred in the dirt, roosting rocks like RPG's and running in and out of pine trees with reckless abandon .... I like my gear when I'm dirt biking. |

just had to get on you about the gear charlie considering you were wearing gear while playing on the 50 in the parking lot. which on this side of the fence looked pretty hilarious. |

lol, ya i could use one of those mike. the 9 doesnt off road to bad though! on that note, i just uncovered the 9 from its winter slumber. have no idea how many months its been since it was fired up as i rode the 12 alot this summer. thought i should check it over and maybe throw it on the charger to make sure it was ready to go, but in typical fashion the damn thing fired right up with a push of the button. man i love that bike!
