It's lovely down here in Louisville. 56* and sunny when we stopped for gas.  Next stop, Birmingham, AL for 5 days.  Oh, yeah, there's two bikes in the bed of the truck.   Twofinger  I hear Michigan has 4-6" forecast for tonight.

Not anywhere near me or you... What little bit of "wet snow" the weather peeps said we were going to get last night was melted away by morning... Have fun on your trip! Cheers

Change of plans.

We're stopping in Nashville.  Weather is gorgeous, free accommodations and a garage to keep the bikes in.  Look for pics of the Natchez Trace, a ride over to Chattanooga and who knows what other devilry we can find.

It's  50* and somewhat sunny in Lieper's Fork.  We rode 50 miles of the Trace and stopped for lunch.

We found the Dukes of Hazzard and the Beverly Hillbillies parking spots.

GoPro 2.    We have video.  Natchez Trace at a good pace, but a bad mounting point for the camera.  Got some jitter.

Love the pic of the General Lee and the BH car.  Awesome!

We got it pretty good today.  It was green Wednesday and we did some good snowmobiling at the farm today.

Off to IHOP for strawberry pancakes, bacon and coffee, then out for a couple hundred miles of twisty goodness to work it off.  When we get back, it'll be time to load up for the drive home tomorrow, concluding a great weekend down here in Nashville.  Damn.
