Nice!

Don't want to wish away my entire summer but definitely looking forward to September!

2. would any of you southern friends be inclined to plot me an off-major-highway route from Franklin, TN to Wytheville? I could look at a map and do it but there's lots to be said for local knowledge :help:
Nearly 400 miles by interstate. Two day journey off-highway but has the potential to be outstanding. Lemme know.
Hey! I'm always up for outstanding :D . I'd rather do that over 2 days than take a highway route.

The only way I'd do highway is if I was chasing a buddy to take the tedium out of it ...
I'll see what I can do.
See what ya think... https://trips.furkot.com/ts/vbuQQY Double clicky to zoom and hold mouse to pan

For the sake of simplicity I plotted it from Tellico Plains, TN. I'll let you figure out your best way from Franklin to Tellico Plains (~200 miles). First stopover night at Maggie Valley Inn former EOM hotel. So first day is about 350 miles from Franklin with the last 150 being a stellar scenic leg! The ~200-250 mile second leg will have you quite twisted all day!! I am sure others will have some input, but the above ain't half bad. Safe journey.
THANK YOU for this ! I've done the Cherohala a few times so I'll likely find a new starting point.

Here's hoping I actually make this happen ;) (if I bring Mini home, I'll have to sell either her or Miss Piggy)

 
MEM, which one is Mini and which one is Miss Piggy? Just curious. :)
You're kidding, right ?
Mini-Me = FZ6 (so named because she's about half the size of Miss Piggy :D )

Miss Piggy = '07 The-Most-Beautiful-Colour-Black-Cherry FJR
Ok got it now. I had no idea. Didn't know about the FZ6. Mini me could've been the FJR and maybe Miss Piggy was a Goldwing or something else. Now I know! I'm new at this... :) If I had a vote, I'd vote for Mini- Me to say Bye Bye... Just Sayin'

FZ6, my first loving bike, know when i take it, I like being on a pockette bike :)

 
MEM, what is this hoping stuff?...you better be there. I know that you gave up cigars after EOM 2011, but you may just have to fall off the wagon...at least for one night. See you in Wytheville.
