Well big bummer today - an idiot caused a wreck today - buzzing along with a buddy in the Pisgah National Forest going into a blind curve. An idiot - who could have pulled down 25 yards to a turnout and no problem - had a truck stopped in the middle of the road loading up a motorcycle . A mortal man could not stop but with my cat like reflexes I was able to stop within a foot of the lady stopped behind the trailer 😂😂. Just when it went through my mind “Holy shit I dodged a bullet” a second later BAM - my buddy rear ended me shoving me into the lady in front of me. MY PAINT JOB 😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩!!! Now comes the fight with the insurance companies. You guys be careful up here - it coulda been a whole lot worse. We are OK and both Slings were still driveable. No matter your skill level you cannot account for what stupid people will do — and ya can’t fix stupid so their still out there!!!

I know.... The more I think about it, I bet I was only going 60 or 65. Maybe lost grip if I was slowing down too fast. I'll never know. You can't go too slow. Someone may rear end you.
Appreciate the bourbon but woulda preferred you here safe - glad your OK - to next year Sir!!

I’ve made up my mind - Canada is OK with me - anybody that can create squeezed diamond juice like Cabot Trail can’t be bad - killed the first bottle (I’m gonna be generous) and say it lasted 30 minutes 😂

Before you embrace the Left Wing Liberals stance to push equality down our throats, you have to watch this video and truly understand just what will happen if it takes over our Country

FYI - had a cancellation so if any of you guys need to park a trailer at my house I have an open space available. Just PM me and I’ll give directions. If you can’t back up good I know a truck driver keeping his trailer here that can back an 18 wheeler thru the eye of a needle available

Just finished packing and leaving after work tomorrow. Will be stopping somewhere between Lexington and Knoxville for the night and hoping to pull into Maggie around lunch on Saturday. Our friends are driving the Vette and I am pulling the sling so we will have a few options for riding and if its raining the Ram will be the choice. See everyone soon
I can almost taste it already

At Wheels Through Time Museum they have great free maps (highly recommended if your into vintage scooters) - also the MV Tourism building on right coming into town. Plus loads of guys that know this area like the back of their hand!!

did a quick search and apparently the guy who played that deliverance kid now works maintenance at a Walmart - - I seriously doubt Walmart would hire Slo Joe for much of anything
While you’re at it what about this star…????
a dentist???? -
Well, last minute, but I'm coming too! That's not a threat.
Arriving Monday, leaving Saturday. I'm probably not going to do much inside the fairgrounds, so I'm not going to register. Figure I could pay day-entry for those days I need and then buy the t-shirt separately. A couple of us have an AirBnB a couple miles away so we're mostly just going to do our own thing. I already have the Freeman Map of the area so we'll check off a couple of those routes.
Bill Martin - Gotta get directions to your place to stop in and say Hi!
Lookin forward to it - glad your coming!!

For those is you worrying about weather there are no guarantees BUT - I have lived here 2 years now and you just can’t predict this mountain weather. I can’t tell you how many times it was 50 - 60% chance of rain and it was a gorgeous day. Then other days the sky fell with 0% chance of rain. Only way to be sure of rain is walk outside - if ya get wet it’s raining - weathermen sure don’t know

All packed, checked oil none needed. Heading to stay with a friend in Wells Maine for 2 days then leaving for SITS Saturday 9am. Going to be a long 1100 mile interstate ride but I'm making a few stops along the way. One stop is home town Easton Pa to click a pic of the Vietnam memorial and my name & rank on it. Been wanting to do that for years. Probably spend Saturday night someplace in Pa if I can find a room. Look forward to meeting everyone at Four Seasons Inn. Everyone ride safe!
You can almost throw a rock and hit my house from the Four Seasons - Welcome Neighbor

Kinda off politics but R.I.P. Tina Turner - what an icon with an amazing set of legs to go along with it !! The greats are starting to drop like flies 😩😩😩 - lot of em cannot be replaced IMO!!

Just more proof the Democrat party- the founders of the kkk and Jim Crow laws, is still as racist today as it was back then. I find it very hard to understand why Blacks in this country are not all card carrying Republicans,
I think they are starting to wise up - this was Ice Cube YESTERDAY !!

The latest "white supremacists" Sai Varshith Kandula attached the white house with an empty U-Haul. After six months of planning he brought a roll of duct tape and a Nazi flag. It was nice of the officers on scene to display his flag as he was cuffed up and couldn't do it himself.
Can anyone tell me how this is anything other than a bat shit crazy person off their meds?
Biden probably gave him instructions - this is about as an elaborate plan he can come up with to support his white supremacy being the most dangerous threat theme. What a freakin idiot 😡😡😡. I think the only thing that the majority of whites, blacks, Asians, Indians, etc etc etc is to BE LEFT THE HELL ALONE !!!

I hope he is elected again.
I would love nothing better if not just to see the left in total meltdown - it is highly doubtful he can win the popular vote but can he take the electoral college - battleground states look like a toss of the coin right now. Should Trump lose to Biden again we can kiss our country goodbye. Imagine Biden dying and we are left with Kamalatoe 😡
