As long as it's not storming or insanely hot, I'm planning to head out Friday after work, spend the night somewhere and be at the Market by 10. I might be on the Daytona this time...not sure yet.  Will

This looks cool, however, I don't know if I can get that close on Friday. I am working in Atlanta on Thursday and Friday, so it might be a very early departure on Saturday morning. If I can get out early on Friday, maybe I will stay here. Not sure how far that is for you. Looking forward to seeing you and everyone.

I'm going to spend Friday night in Robbinsville. Tried the Two Wheel Inn, but they're booked so went with the Microtel instead. I'll do a morning run west on the Cherohala to Tellico Plains to meet at the Market for the ride east. I've got to be back home by about 8:00 Saturday, so may skip the Dragon in the afternoon. Loading up the Speedmaster tonight and hitting the road as soon as I can get away from work tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing you all. Will

I got back home about 6:15. Had to use the rain gear a couple times on the way home; heaviest rain was only about fifteen minutes from Robbinsville going down 74.
It was good to see everyone, and the Cherohala was great both times today. It sure seems easier to ride when you're following good riders and seeing the lines they (you guys) take.
I'll take a look at the photos I took, and post the good ones later on. Everybody take care,
Will

Lunch in Robbinsville  Bikes at the top of Cherohala Skyway  Hit Wolf Pen Gap on the way home  Couple of 2012 BMWs I saw at the end of Wolf Pen Gap Rd.  Great ride today! I really do wish I had video of Mike, Keith and Cameron clicking through those corners.

I pulled into the garage around 2:30 AM this morning. 821 miles of mostly good times. Kitty was ready for more, not so much for me! Great seeing everyone, and let's do it again sometime.
