I belong to a couple of other motorcycle forums and I always learn something along the way. I'm 68 now and I've been riding since I was 16 when I got my first bike. I've taken quite a few extended solo trips including to Arkansas, Missouri, Virginia, North Carolina etc. When I take an extended trip I'll bring a tent along and camp as much as I can to keep costs down. One of my favorite places to camp that's not too far away is Tellico Plains, Tn. I'm planning a 3-4 day trip there for this coming Spring. If I see that this group is planning a local ride I'll try to join in so I can get to know everybody. I'm from Moulton, Al by the way.

Welcome from Huntsville!  Sounds like you're not too far away, and maybe we'll be able to join up on some rides in the future!  Love that Stratoliner!

Hi S68, I just joined as well, we live in Athens.  Does Moulton still have that steakhouse with the cheap and tasty steaks?  Western Sirloin I think is the name of it?  My wife and I rode there once when we had the Valkryrie.  We also went to the Hen and Egg Festival on the Valk as well.  Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever driven my truck or our SUV to Moulton...  Anyway, welcome aboard!

Welcome from Huntsville.  I also belong to other forums but when it comes to meeting other people to ride with in Alabama, this is the one.
You mentioned you like extended trips.  We do that too.  Take a look at ride reports.  We just had a group ride the entire Blue Ridge Parkway.  This summer another group went to Canada for Lobster.  Last year a group rode to Alaska and the Arctic circle.

Moulton still has the "Western Sizzlin" steak house plus a couple of other fine places to eat. They had to abandon the "Chicken and Egg festival a couple of years ago due to some of the proceeds somehow missing at the end of the event. Too bad, we really used to enjoy going.  :'(

Oh man, that's sad!   That was the only place I've ever been able to get a boiled egg/chicken finger kebab!
