Motorcycle Alabama

Anybody want to have some fun Saturday? Me (wr426) and my buddy (wr250) plan to do some riding on Bingham mountain. We will be meeting in Gurley at Hardees at 9AM.

Its big bike friendly if you are experienced.

Come early and eat breakfast at hardees or eat a good breakfast beforehand. There isn't anywhere to eat lunch until we leave.
My buddy needs to be back on the road by 1:30, but he can leave by himself if we are still riding. I have all day.

Who is interested?(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180508/5367e3d28031cdff78b45434cd2679ca.jpg)

I'll go. How many miles?

Never mind on the miles. Heck it's right next to Hollytree. See you there! 

Haha I'm actually not sure! Not a whole lot. My Speedo and odo don't work so I don't keep track of miles on the WR. Where we are going in is just a few miles past hollytree.

Gas shouldn't be any issue.

should be before Hollytree, near the 7 mile marker on Hwy 65

You may be right.... I know where we turn at when I spot it. But I'm typically not lead.

Thanks Johnny, I appreciate it!

most go up the mt on CR 106.

I may ride up with yall, but can't hang out too long. I'll know better later in the week.

Based on the picture, looks to steep for me!   ;D

The steepness I could handle...it is the sidewaysness I would have problems with.  :D

Yeah not sure why my phone flipped the picture sideways

But actually it is pretty steep first starting out. The first stretch up the mountain. After that it's not bad.
we had an old clapped out 70s dirt bike with street wheels make it up there and back down!

Yeah I'm going to trailer mine to Gurley and ride from there.

You shouldn't have any problem on a 350. Come join us!

my driveway is less than a half mile from where you go up the mt. You can park in my front yard if you want. I have plenty of room.

Now that's just too convenient. I will send you a message.

With your skills, yer joking. You should remove your front wheel and show us how to go up on one. Or add a reverse gear and show us how to do it backwards. 

Making me blush!! I was giving him a hard time about the orientation of the picture! Does look fun just wish it wasn't 2 hours away!

I will be at Hardees just after 8 to eat breakfast and hang out until 9. Rolling out at 9, headed to Johnny's house to unload my bike. If anyone else is trailering, we will leave our cages there.

Looking forward to some good riding. See you all in the AM!

Great ride...thanks David for leading

Hate I missed this one...looks awesome!

This sure was a good time. I was happy to set it up! I'm sure we will do it again soon. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180512/7af5b210dd56f8239de05c7783a4c768.jpg)

I had a great time.

Thanks guys for further enriching my very limited riding ability. 

Thanks again guys. Hope to do it again soon.

It was good running into you guys this morning.  Sorry I wasn't able to stay and hang out longer. I knew we had a long day ahead of us. We finally got back to the pavement about 9:15 at night.
