I never remember to take pictures, but I have a few.

Some river overlook.

Gramps & TripperMike discussing Tripper's graffiti discovery that Heather really gets around.

Gramps getting a pen to write Heather's number down while tripper looks for more of her escapades.

Wheatie pretending to have a clue about what his GPS says...

Some guys salvaging brick from a flooded out town. They get $200 a pallet.

Griff giving a chilled ShowMeMo a rundown on how his electric gear keeps him warm and toasty.

ShowMeMo doing his best Griff imitation.

Wheatie still trying to figure out his "Gravel Locatin' Machine"

Yes, I too got home safe, but....the first 1.5 hr after leaving Clinton on 16, I saw no less than 20 forest rats and the first one I saw almost took me out. :huh:

WOW. Glad you got home okay...plenty of deer out there for sure.

I hope JeffS and Scott/fjrrider got home okay as well. Post up you guys if you get a minute...

Yeah I got home just fine.......it was actually a nice ride home after it got in the 50's with sunshine

That's great. I had a great time down there in Arky land...good to see you again Scott. Sunshine and dry roads are good.

It's always Wheaties fault. He made me tip my bike over from a quarter mile away. Airboss is my witness.

Hi Ray...scratched saddlebag still a touchy subject I see.

 

[Gramps]

I'm not having any luck with editing the video. The quality is just piss poor plus I'm out of town until Monday. I'll work on it some more when I get back.

 

[Gramps]

Here it is unedited.

Thanks Gramps...that was a fun day. If I recall, this northbound run was the first going that way and a nice warmup for the faster run southbound. I know my front tire heated up pretty good on this mountain.

Great video, Marc. That has become my favorite stretch of road of all time. I'm sure there are better, but the nice pavement, lack of traffic, and great flow make that section a real gem.
