Hugh and I just pulled back in to the house about a half hour ago. Had an absolute blast and I definitely trust the baby Ninja more now! It was so great meeting everyone! I hope the rest of you had a great day at the Gap! Pics after I dig the cable out of my bag...

Sprinkled a couple of times, but no real rain while Hugh and I were riding. I think some of the people that got down there the day before us got some, but it was really a gorgeous weekend!

I'm back in my own bed. So nice.

Someone hid my bike in the woods thanks to piz. Fucker.

There are some fucking hysterical pics, but since I don't have a camera. They will have to be posted by someone else. We had 3 get offs so far. All the riders are fine and every bike was rideable, they can each tell the stories if they want.

Ebbs, you are still not in the circle, you dirty fucking bastard.

Made it to Boone a while ago. Wasn't sure if I'd have to call for a tow from my brother. Scary as hell when you realize you don't remember the last 5 seconds. It's one thing to drift around consciousness in a cage, and totally different on a sportbike. I had to stop half a dozen times to get some focus back and ride safely.

Tomorrow is going to be another long day on the bike, but all slab this time. My poor knees won't take any more abuse. I'll post pics (and vids) when I get the rest of the way home.

BE SAFE! if you're nodding stop and get a hotel. I don't care how expensive it is... it's gotta be cheaper than buying a new bike and paying for medical bills... that's IF YOU'RE LUCKY.

Nancy, it was great meeting you and Hugh too!! Enjoyed the heck out of hanging out and riding with y'all :dthumb:

My brother (i'm staying with now) has a pickup. If I thought I couldn't make it after taking a breaK, I would have called and told him to load the bike up.

Got a text from Rogue about 11 (EST), and checked the weather. Nothing directly in her path, but there was a cell north and south of her. I sent back that it should blow over soon.

Seriously. A power nap on the side of the road goes a looloong way.

After riding in rain, dense fog, and damn near hitting baby bambi, I'm done riding for the day.

I'm home. Fuck this place. I wanna go back! :cry:

That happened to me a couple of times yesterday, kinda nodded off for a sec, I would just pull over stretch out for a few minutes and get back on the road and it made a world of difference.

Goit home last night at 2030 or so. I was nodding too, puled over more than I usually would. Although I would have had to anyway, for some reason when I hit Alabama my bike started getting between 30 and 35 to the gallon. That's worse than on the way up when I had more weight!

Phenix, don't mess around, if you get tired pull over. And the slab is hypnotizing, so be careful.

Yeah- that sucked. 10 hours of slab today to get the rest of the way home. For a while I was stopping about every 20 miles to stretch and snap a few pictures. Once I pulled over at a rest stop and took a nap on a picnic table :wtfru:

I rode 18 hours yesterday but only racked up about 700 miles. 500 of it was slab.

I texted alot of people when I stopped for gas. Mainly Eric so in case he didn't hear from me in a while, he'd know about where to start looking. :lol: He knew my route and planned stops.

I ran into some rain. I hit a couple of heavy spots and pulled off. Then got a light rain that caused alot of bad fog on the road with very little visibility. That's when baby bambi decided to walk out in front of me. :panic: I barely missed that damn deer! :panic:
