I've already decided that would be a good day, to head north to the BRP, while the thundering herd is downtown

I'm going to stop by Bike Fest tonight on way home from work and check out Ronnie Clinton. He sounds good. Will probably go tomorrow afternoon for a few hours too. Hopefully it won't be too crowded.

Yeah, they're heads above when it was Cape Fear HD... It is a really changed place. I only go in there for swag or events and what not.

I usually go to the Hog Shop over on 301 near the Airport (Closer to Tom Starling rd) of 'The Shop" over on Cameron rd in Hope mills...two good indy shops if ya get tired of the dealer...

Just moved to the area, a little north of Fayetteville, and loving this warm weather we are having!

My Dyna was sitting for the last 3 years while I was outside the mainland, so glad to see a little TLC has it running like a top again.

One question I have. My previous state did not require turn signals, or inspections for that matter. Anyone have a shop they prefer to get there's done at? Are some shops friendly than others or are those times long gone now?

Thanks!

I look forward to seeing you all out on the road.

If you HAVE turn signals, they have to work.... but if you don't have them...it's okay.
Try D&Q in Angier http://www.dandqmotorsports.com/
Plenty of friendly INDY shops, and some of the Dealerships have figured out, without customers, they don't have a job....
Still there's a few dealerships that believe it's 1991, and folks will accept all manner of abuse

Welcome to NC

Helluva storm just rolled through. Hope all are well. Trees down and power out in various parts of the state. Snow rolling in from the west and north of the Triad now.

FYI just across the border, and 10 minutes north of Clarksville... OR Boydton
pricey... but good riding
I've read $15 on Friday, $20 Saturday, $30 all three days...confirm that... it might just be a rumor

If you're bored, and looking for something a bit off the normal dealership-bar routine.
Virginia is for lovers, has this whole "LOVE" thing going on.
Sites across the state have statues on display.
I've just started to "collect" them makes for a nice way to spend a day on two wheels
