Anybody up for a ride around lunch or later tomorrow (Sunday)?

Don't have anywhere in particular to go, just something like a 3 or 4 hour ride around and back in time for dinner and before rain might come in...

FalcoFred, you out riding any tomorrow after MotoGP and breakfast?  MK, BentAero, Tiger, Bueller...???

I would love to also but my wife and I have the daycare at church today and will be busy with that.  Otherwise I would meet up and ride for sure!  Thank goodness the daycare only happens once like every other month!

Definitely let me know if you will be riding next weekend any..............I will be on-call for my job all week and next weekend but as long as I have a phone and relatively around I can go ride!

Matt,
Can you give me a start time and place.  I'm going riding today (Sunday) with no particular plans.  Can leave the house by 10am which would put me in the Asheville area an hour and maybe a half later.

that's Broadway (25) and College on the north side of the loop?  Not too far from Town Mt Rd?
See you at 1230.

It's Charlotte and College, but yes right there by Town Mtn Road where we met last time.

Maybe we can get together for a ride next weekend...  We're probably having an open house next Sunday so that's out for me.  I'm always up for sneaking away for a breakfast or lunch.

Excellent ride!   Got to go longer next time  Smile  
Lucked out on the way up and way back, Hickory Nut Gap, between Bat Cave and Asheville was M T.  It was like my own personal race track.  That doesn't happen.   At the turn off to Hendersonville, I was lucky enough to get behind a pirate parade all the way to 9 heading south, what fun  Lol

Matt,
Thanks for the invite, I was down at the IronHorse Campground attending a V-Strom rally this weekend. I did get up through Asheville on my way home for some wings at the Wild Wing but it was later in the afternoon.

It was a good ride.  You can't go wrong with several hours in Madison County.  I totally forgot that the BikeFest was this weekend at the fairgrounds.  A couple of friends went on Sunday and said it was lightly attended...  The Thunder in the Smokies was also in Maggie Valley so there were a lot of pirates out but not in the twisties.

Last week my girl's school had a benefit dinner dealio at Wild Wings and at least three people came out of it with food poisoning.  They're always good but be sure to wash it down with some alcohol... Smile  I'm tellin' ya, we need to have a ride and then meet at Wild Wings and see a Tourists game...  good stuff.

I'll be around as well.  Was thinking of buzzing down to Jennings to catch the WERA races but have a party to go to Saturday night...

Matt, Sorry I couldn't make it, but I left Sunday headed for CMP for the US Desmo track day on Monday.  Had a ball flogging the SV all day.

While near the Ag Center on Sunday afternoon we saw both riders who attended the rally.  Rolleyes

Man, I'm sorry to hear about your miserable Monday.  I had fun...  I got to sit in on a couple of conference calls!!!  Thumbsup  

You'll have to fill me in on the fun.  I'd really like to get down there for a track day.

Bump for another ride tomorrow - Sunday early afternoon.  3 or 4 of us are tentatively getting together early afternoon to ride until around 5:00 or so.  Don't have any particular destination or direction in mind...  but I'm thinking southwest of Asheville in the 215 and Jackson/Macon Co area.  But, the Bakersville area might be nice also...

Weather is supposed to be nice again tomorrow so let me know if you want to come along.

Hi Matt,
Hope I run into you.  I'm rolling in less than half an hour, 8am and will be all over that area.
