Well I made it back in one piece! Had a great time and CB was a perfect host.
The whole experience was a real eye opener to how rusty I had become riding these straight Florida roads but I think I got back about 70% of where I thought I was skill wise.

Going to keep it brief for now, just a few pics.

Friday.
Got to King NC. in the am and checked into the Econ Lodge.

Econo Lodge.




From there went over to Cheaps place and got in a 100 mile intro to the following days adventure.

Cheaps house. Apparently he had a problem with his moonshine still the night before. :-D


We did some local twisties and even had a little drag race on the straight.( Promised CB I would not tell the outcome of that)
:-D :-D

Saturday and Sunday
Started off well with CB paying homage to the dark side.


We did about 500+ miles of fun, from NC into Virginia. Think we visited every place that ended in gap, Tuggles, Fancy and one that had something to do with a squirrel, and many I forgot the names of.

CB scraping his belly pan




we even got a visit from some guy who said his name was Tekmoe, he wanted to show us his new jacket and enjoy an adult beverage :-D


Thats all for now, more if you want 'em. :razz:
