Default An Ultra, a Dyna and the Blue Ridge.

Headed out from Richmond to the Blue Ridge Parkway today. Road well over 300 miles and had to fill the bikes up TWICE with gas. Road the back roads, stopped for lunch, yada, yada, yada.... Had a great time. The weather was perfect, to say the least. Wanted to share some pics and a short video of one of the roads we rode. Super tight and twisty. Dragons Tail kinda stuff. Anyways, here's what we got:

The wife and me rollin' down th road.


Me and my buddy on his black '08 Ultra:


Me, the wife and the Springer Low Rider on a scenic outlook:

Thanks for letting me share.

Hey bikerlaw, what kind of 3/4 helmet is that? It looks good, not mushroomy at all. Is it DOT?

Great pics and video. Tell your wife she did an admirable job holding that little point-and-shoot camera steady!

I love the Blue Ridge Parkway. I'm planning to run from it's northern terminus (Skyline Drive in Front Royal, VA) to it's southern terminus in Asheville, NC in a few weekends from now. Should be a great ride. Roughly 450 miles.
