No pics tonight.....but god damn.....skyline drive is about the best MC road I've ever been on. We've got some videos....but too big / too long to try to upload now. Skipping a bit of blue ridge parkway to make up some time (that rain yesterday really boned us time wise)....well be on the dragon tomorrow sometime around 11am.

To you guys who insist I need to carry a patch kit and a compressor to fix a flat; I'd love to watch you pull the rear tire on my Softail and extract, patch and replace the inner tube on the side of the road without a bike lift. Even in a well equipped shop with a hydraulic lift and the right tools it takes a lot of effort.

In my case, I have to settle for a good road service plan and a cell phone.
