“We ride the Blue Ridge Parkway a lot. But we have never ridden it end to end at one time, and 2017 is the year.”

Dock Holiday

 

“Seriously considering an Arizona/Utah/Colorado Devil’s Highway/Million Dollar Highway loop for late summer.”

“Ride to York H-D for the Steel Toe Tour.”

“My 2017 riding goals are goals that I’ve been putting off for far too long: take an experienced-riders course, then take the ‘Ride Like a Pro’ course.

“I plan on becoming proficient at slow-speed maneuvers with my Ultra Limited. I’m currently reading a book called Proficient Motorcycling…a very good read so far. The way I see it, it’s never too late to ‘learn, how to ride.”
