New Years Day ride!

Post by wncbmw »

I managed start the new year right! January 1st was unusually warm, with temps in the 60s and beautiful. I wasn't going to post anything because I forgot my camera but near the house is a guy doing what Killboy does in Deals Gap, take pictures and post them for you!

Here is a link to pictures of me riding yesterday. You should not have a problem figuring out which ones are me! :lol:

This is a popular area road, with lots of cruisers riding to Lake Lure and a biker bar there. I ride it for the curves. This road is less than 10 miles from my house! :D

No problem at all. Nice apehangers!

I am jealous! We got a couple of inches of snow yesterday. It was above freezing, but there was slush and salt all over the place.

DJ - don't know who that is on page 11 (I stopped looking when I found my pics), although I think I saw that bike parked at a cafe later. The pics of me are the same corner, different spot. Notice, I did not cross the center line however! :P

We had some ice and snow last week, so some of the corners might have a little sand/salt combo to make it interesting. Summer time cornering is another matter though. :wink:
