    Tennessee Hwy 30

    Yo, A ride in the twisties of TN sounds like a really fine idea. There are a few guys in SC thinking about hosting something in November near 28, 130, 176, 276, 64 and 11 north of the Cherokee Hills Parkway. I'd love to see you guys organize something before the chilly weather and the holiday...

    Ohlins Shock for the FJR13

    Ed, You can count on at least 2 years of street service from a quality rebuildable shock according to my folks at GMD. Ohlins has a service center in Hendersonville, NC. There are race shops in Charlotte, Charleston, and Atlanta that can rebuild Penske. See, that's what happens when you go...

    Wanted to thank everyone for a great time @ EOM 08'

    Hats off to the organizers and planners. This was a great event. The ride up from Georgia was great fun on some super roads livened up by a spectacular lunch with most unusual service provisions. But, who's complaining? The food was great when it arrived. I've had lots of HSTA rally...

    Wayne (ExtremeMarine) and Annette Update

    I'll be wishing them well and sending hopes for a fast recovery. Broken ribs hurt like hell! Don't make 'em laugh.

    I'm extremely sorry to hear about a crash with extrememarine and Annette. The road to Burke's Garden is very tight and twisty and the slopes are steep. I wish them a very quick recovery. Better news will be welcome.

    I made it home just fine except for wafer thin tread patterns remaining on the front RoadSmart. Some hard running in the twisties rewarded me with 3,747 miles on the rear that was changed too early at Freedom Motorsports. I could have gotten 300 more miles if I changed it out at home. My...

    Hi Y'all, If'n you want a room in the lodge, PLEASE make your email reservations right away. GT and Britt report that they are getting inquiries from other folks. I plan to be up there in the early afternoon on Friday. That will allow time to set up the tent, have a toddy, and be ready for...

    Secret Identity is Rich who posted above. He's a great rider who knows some great TN roads. There's gotta be a story there on him being "shy". I look forward to getting the answer as well as getting his scenic tour of middle and eastern TN. I'm hoping he and his buds will be setting up a...

    Here are a few more photos of Sean and our group during the ride up to the Cherohala Scenic Skyway. I'll always choose to remember this trip as "Good Times" for Sean, me and our Riding Group. You never die as long as memory of you lives on. Our Georgia group of Riders links ups with Don...

    North Georgia FJR Rally!! Mark your calendar!

    Recover quickly and come on down! The trip should be magical at that time of the year. If you have the time, you could do Skyline Drive and then south on the BRP. Note there are two detour sections north of Asheville.

    I was rated for an R1 or a GSXR. Funny, I have a GSXR1K. Feeling the need for speed?

    Heated vests

    I swear by my Gerbing jacket liner. Be sure to get the newer style with coaxial connectors. They are much easier to use than the SAE trailer connectors. If you tell the folks at Gerbing at the point of your order, they can set up the jacket wiring to control your GLOVES separately with the...

    Following are two PM's I received from David (Wingnut) who was Sean's riding partner on the day of the accident. David is more than a riding partner on motorcycles. For several years, he and Sean were team drivers on a big rig and they traversed the entire US together. That kind of "seat...

    CFR from Maine

    Gentlemen, At this point in the late evening and after watching every long range weather forecast I can find, I am going to cancel my trip. I have been planning to camp for several days in the Adirondacks on my return trip. However, with the remnants of one hurricane and two on the way, it...
