Observations: Never leave on a trip later than 8:00 am. CB-1's need bigger gas tanks. 2.2 gal to reserve :-< rt 79 s below Pgh. should be blown up, oh wait it looks like it already has. rt 77 in WV and VA is very nice for a super slab. The Blue Ridge Parkway is Beautiful. The Blue Ridge Parkway is fun. Ride the Blue Ridge Parkway. Radar Detectors are our friends. High Country Motorcycle Camp is very nice as camp grounds go. Denizens are much nicer to each other in person. Denizens do not look like you imagine they look. I had the smallest displacement bike there. Never Never go fast around that left hand corner with the fence on Mt Zion Rd. Favorite Dod Unix command is grep. Ed Green's wife is a very nice person. I hate hazy, hot and humid. You can ride 70 mph in rain and fog on a highway. Never get caught in a traffic jam of teenagers going to a Guns'n'Roses/Metallica concert 15 miles from home after you have just ridden over 400 miles in the rain. It makes you do bad things like split lanes between a bunch of teenagers going to a rock concert. I must say that we impressed them. WE got a lot of thumbs up and "cool bikes dudes" from the teenagers hanging out of windows and sun roofs. All in all I had a great time. Did anyone find a set of keys with one blue key on it? |Chris Hogan | 1127 | |ch3c+@andrew.cmu.edu | Soft as the massacre of Suns | | | By Evening's Sabres slain | |CB-1 | emily dickinson |
