I'm also trying to arrange special guest appearance by Lincoln Infield, editor extraordinaire of Carolinas Full Throttle Magazine. Places of interest on the tour will include Bulldog HD in Smithfield on Thursday, New River HD in Jacksonville on Friday and Beaufort waterfront on Saturday, with option to visit Royal James Cafe. PM me if interested.
That sounds truly amazing. You're a generous man!

Hope we have good weather. Oh, Saturday will also feature a ferry ride across the Neuse River, which is about 3 miles wide where we cross.

I love that little ferry ride. We will probably see y’all in Oriental…maybe at Wilbur’s … we shall see.

I took advantage of Saturday's great weather, and headed north to South Hill VA and "Risin' Smoke BBQ"
175 miles of curves, back roads, sunshine, and of course 'cue

That looks like a nice ride Frank and it was beautiful. I just got in about 75 miles to try my new Front fork Intiminators after installation.

There was a small window between the rain and gale force winds on Saturday, and I took advantage of it.
I can't remember the last time I went to Rocky Mount and Gardner's BBQ, and it's close enough I can get an enjoyable ride in, and if need be hop on US-64 and beat feet for home.
Food was as I remembered "Eastern style good, but not WOW" still a better day than sitting around watching TV.
Eased along the back roads , stopped at Laurel Mills for a quick photo, and home before the winds picked up..

Yes I know I rode right past Rocky Mount H-D (or whatever it's called now) but they've changed the road and there's no easy left across traffic, and I never did get that whole riding from one dealership to another.
I drove the same Ford pick-up for 25 years, and never thought about visiting other Ford dealerships just to "hang-out.

I believe it is now a private residence, someone told me they had gotten inside woth the owner and it's all done up.... but it might justbe an "internet rumor"

@skootchnc Which nav app are you using to track and post your routes?
As the weather warms up I’m going to try to pick up my BBQ travels.

I use 2 apps Relive which creates a movie of my route (too large a file for HD forums) and Riser which I can and do post here.
I'll hit start on both while I fuel up, and hit finish as I pull into the garage
both are free, for iphone and android users
