OP ThomWill Learned Hand Joined: Oct 2007 Posts: 1,680 Georgia	Tried out the new touring bike this weekend and took my lovely wife up to the top of the peak foliage (which is the Balsam overlook on the BRP in these parts at this time of year) 350 mile day, perfect weather and my best girl finally able to see some of the stuff that I have only seen without her. The Route: From just outside Atlanta, U.S. 23 (I-985) north to just outside Sylva N.C. picked up the BRP and went out to the Inn at Mt. Pisgah then backtracked back to US 276 to Brevard, NC (Great road!) then U.S. 64 from Brevard to Highlands, N.C. finally N.C 106 (Dillard Road) back to U.S. 23 and home. She took several hundred pictures, here are some of the ones I liked best. Especially the little dog tied to the Goldwing. Thom I might be wrong, I sometimes am.

I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago. Edgar Allan Poe

Next time your heading up to the BRP, try 215 out of Rosman. It has fresh asphalt, smooth as glass! Past the BRP, 215 is full of huge pot holes. Glad you had a great ride.
