Well,

GranDevil and I made it back to the coast of NC. We missed a lot of the rain somehow, we did get a little sprinkle here and there a few times, but not enough to get the junk wet so we were good to ride without too much discomfort...

Now I have to unpack... but as you all know, every thread needs a picture. So I will post my pictures after I unpack...

Ok... I'm unpacked now!

That was made easy by me wrecking my truck in Asheville on the way to the Bash on Thursday. Thank to Kevin (Vman1300) for providing a temporary home for my trailer while my truck gets repaired. At least no one was hurt and the bikes where untouched in the trailer, got to love those Baxley chocks...

More pictures to follow...

Lucky you no rain... Rock and I got soaked on the way back on I40. We had a few stretches of dry pavement, but the last couple hours home was pouring rain. I felt like a wet cat ...

Brother sorry I couldn't wait, but we needed to get down the road, and it looks like we had perfect timing with the rain... I was thinking about you guys and I'm glad you made it home safely as well...

We got a late start (30 minutes behind the group) for the Cherohala ride to Hooters...
