yeah! we need pics! You know, all this talk about taking a sportster all the way up to NC and ride the twisties. I don't beliueve the ol man can do it!!!
(that oughtta spark some replies with pictures for proof)
Man, you guys want pictures of mountains, twisties, heated gear, etc. but nobody said anything about my a$$less chaps....
Sorry, but any pictures on this trip are likely to be scarce as the camera was deemed to be unnecessary baggage. Being solo on this trip, so no one to take pictures of, and packing a Sporty for a 2+ week with clothing to deal with 90* temps in FL and 40* temps up here forced me leave some non-essentials like camera equipment at home. After coming up here several times a year for the last 2 decades, I already have enough scenery pics from here to last a lifetime.
I am scheduled to meet up with a couple of forum members next week on the Dragon, so maybe we'll get some pics then.
In the mean time, here's one from the archives at Nantahala where I was yesterday.
