SLINGSHOTS IN THE SMOKIES 2019

Quote from Boomer

Well I have to say had a great time with all of you , with some special rides I would have never seen, special thanks to Bubblehead an Janet for those beautiful views. Got to meet some new folks like BACKWARDS LARRY. Also have to mention new coonass friends SCRATCH and PEDAL PUSHER. Hope the tears have quite flowing.

After leaving on Sunday at 8 got to west side of Little Rock then 13 hours home I now officially have the riding disease called FLAT BUTT SYNDROME.

I have to say 2670 miles round trip most of you might get same.

You need to ask these new folks why I called their names out

Don't tell my secret.....lol......

Did anyone else come home with no-see-ums bites all over them? I'm desperately hoping it's those gnats and not bed bug bites.... it's only on exposed areas of my skin, but I have so damn many bites...

The nats were definitely out at the fairgrounds I was slapping ever few seconds but I don’t see any bites....

I'm particularly allergic to bug bites so it may be just me. Itchy!! I usually check thoroughly for bed bug signs in every place I stay at, but I was just so tired when I got in I said "what's the chances?" Now I don't know. So everything I brought is still out in the garage until I can determine if this is those NC gnats or something else...

Mosquitos love me, at least the ones here in TX do. I didn't get bit once while in NC

Outstanding. Thank you for all the work and effort.

Hey, Boomer, do you think BACKWARDS larry has figured out how to mount his tires the right way yet? He was suppose to send us pictures when he go it figured out.

Guess he was too busy mounting his new shocks or maybe he just likes driving backwards.

Frank the Tank how do we know he didn’t shoot camera from back side, you know he’s sneaky that way. Besides he put on white coil overs so that makes his sling slower, should have been red like swing arm. Don’t you agree with me?

Boomer, I've looked at those pictures several times and I can't tell which way they are going. Maybe we will have a tire expert out there chime in? Still look backwards to me.

I looked at the pics closely larry and they are correct now.

Well at least dangerdarrell and I taught him how to close his hood without slamming it!

That was his first problem but it still is not a fast red one. He did get a tune now he spins his tire and his next purchase will be a rear tire.

JUST SAYIN

Thank you for the input dangerdarrell. Good to know that larry will be going in the right direction now .

Maggie Valley was great, met new friends and seen old friends. Great weather and great rides.! Couldn’t have ask for a better event.....

Also great vendors, and thanks rabtech for letting us both hang out under your tent...

Thanks to bob for his tune,, it really Makes a difference.......!!

Could it possibly be chiggers.. ?

Those little buggers burrow under skin and make an awful sore..

Learned my life lesson with how awful Chiggers are in Oklahoma.

I did some research, it was those no-see-ums. They were everywhere at the field. how can such a tiny insect leave such a huge bite behind!

Cause they liked to burrow. They usually like me, guess they aren't the same ones we get in Texas
