Sat 22nd - We started our last day of touring, 500+ miles, with 250 mountain twisties then 250 slab to Knoxville, with some beautiful sights crossing the mountains of Virgina heading into West Virgina
we were heading toward the Green Bank Radiotelescope (GBT) in Green Bank, WV and found some great riding along the way with some scenic sites
then the GBT itself
intelligent life is not so intelligent after all...
more great riding on the way to the New River Gorge Bridge
after 250 miles of the most techincal riding of the trip we headed for Knoxville, 300 miles away! we slabbed it down I-81 and saw some beautiful VA countryside
Sun 23rd - Our final shot, back in Birmingham in my garage... all good things must come to an end, after 4,000 miles for me and 4,250 for Mike, he still had 250 miles left to Niceville, can't you see how excited he looks about that!
In summary, we found that there's a hell of a lot of corn in Iowa, it's great to have great friends in Minnesota, Lake Superior is a majestic place, Canada is beautiful, the power of the Falls is awesome, Gettysburg is a very moving place, WV has some awesome riding and it really doesn't matter where you go, as long as you go, but you can't beat spending 12 days and 4,000 miles riding FJR's with your childhood buddy!
