Anyone? I'm here in New Market, about 10 miles south of the TN state line. Huntsville, AL is the major town for this area.

Not exactly North Alabama, but I do get over to those parts fairly often. Matter of fact, I just did 240+ miles around the Jasper/B'ham/Tuscaloosa area on Monday. I have also explored a bit in the area around Natural Bridge too.

We are safe. I am in Decatur proper which pretty much dodges the bullet. Have been out of power from Wed afternoon until today. But looking around I consider myself fortunate.

Hey folks, another shoals area rider here. Has anybody ever been up the trace to the Loveless cafe near nashville? Heard it has good food. The trace is not the most exciting ride but it sure is enjoyable to me.

I have been up there a couple or three times over the years. Typical diner food for the most part. Not sure it is worth the wait that you sometimes run into, but it is as good a destination as any.
I was out your way the other day. Stopped by the Rattlesnake Salonn. Cool place and some great roads in the area.

I haven't been there yet, but hear it's a good place to eat. there are some good roads in the area. I was hoping to get togeather for a ride over the holiday weekend, but had to much going on. I've been off work for 4 days and haven't been on a bike at all.
Yankee Dog, if you are ever in the area again give me a heads up, maybe we can meet up.

The wife & I got on the LT this morning, rode thru bankhead down to Houston and had breakfest @ Chief Troy's. Than down to Smith Lake Dam, Rickwood Caverns, & up to Blunt Co. and try to find some of the covered bridges. The first one we got to was closed for repairers and by then it was sooo hot we headed back home.
I maybe able to go for a ride monday.

I'll be riding over to a friend's house early tomorrow morning to try and get his bike detailed so he can sell it. He wants to go from a Kawi Vulcan to something a bit sportier. He has his eye on a ZRX1100 on Craigslist here in town and we'll head over to look at it after his bike is clean. I'll be able to ride Monday if anyone else would care to join. Thinking about going Hytop/Skyline via 65 just east of Gurley. Will more than likely be early morning as the heat is south of crazy during the afternoon hours. If anyone/everyone who's interested will pm me, I'll send the details and some more ways to verify upcoming rides/meets. Or, email me at loadedmind [at] g m a i l [dot] c o m
