DAMN Riders - No rules, Just ride!

I'd like another street bike at some point in the future. The Strom is on my short list too.

I had one before and I loved it. I sold it in a rush so I could buy something else I wanted and I've regretted it since. This one was from a friend and a deal I couldn't pass up.

Congrats Jed.

I am thinking of a run down the BRP this fall on the Tiger, I am sure it would like to meet the wee...

All the way down? I've only done the length of it once, but I could make a 2-3 day trip out of it in July maybe.

Pfft..2-3 days! We did it in about 12 hours!

Granted, the Connie needed new tires by the end...

I meant for a down and back trip, not 3 days to get all the way down (that's waaay to long)

We did the trip that Jay refers to in 4 days, IIRC. We rode down for the "Run with the Wolf" ride, its a Concours owners group ride. I'd love to do it again! We did ride the entire length down, thus the baby butt smooth tires, we rode a section of it back North after I told Jay that was the only way he could convince me to buy new tires in Georgia. I still think they would have gotten me home if we'd stuck to highways.

4 days is probably the ticket. Something like get down to Staunton\Waynesboro for the start of the BRP on day 1 (that could be done in half a day if necessary). Day 2 would be 375 miles of the BRP to just north of Ashville. Day 3 would be a full blown assault on the Diamondback: https://switzerlandinn.com/diamondback/ (This is the primary mission of this trip) and day 4 is B-line home up 81.

I have the weekend of 9/17 blocked out for this trip on my schedule, sandwiched between the 7 Mountains Dual sport and the Moonshine Endruo; September is going to be Awesome!

And there was no way those tires were getting you home from Georgia, not the way you ride!!

Meh, you couldn't actually see the cords.

I'll see what September holds for me
