Gave myself a radial fracture on my elbow, so ... I'm out.   :thumb-down-012:   :sad-055:

I'm working Friday night but as long as there aren't any unexpected delays at work I'll be there Saturday morning.

My new to me KLX has a slipping clutch. I'm hoping it is because the PO put risers on it and the clutch cable is stretched and I cant get any freeplay out of it. Ordered a longer cable yesterday, supposed to be here Wednesday.

Looks like my plan to ride my first DS ride with knowledgeable folks is not going to happen. I am going to have to be out of town Saturday. What does Sunday ride comprise of?

I'll never be old enough to ride a sportbike responsibly...

No ride planned for Sunday, but we can always take suggestions and go for a ride.... Since we're riding some Bankhead Saturday, maybe we could ride southern/middle Tennessee Sunday :thinking-022:

It's and hour to get to the good stuff, but it's worth it....

I hope the chance of rain fades off.

So I'm pretty much stuck with riding the WR an hour and a half to get there but I'm kind of thinking about bringing a tent and sleeping bag on my back and staying the night. It will be nice to rest for a night before making the ride back home.

If anyone is coming through/near scottsboro trailering their bike... I'm all ears

I've got an extra tent, or 4 :respect-048:....and sleeping bags(6 or 7 of them :crazy:)...no need to pack a tent or bag, I can put up an extra one. :DANCING-banana-032:

I may even round up a COT if sleeping on the ground is an issue.

I've got us about 60 miles+/- after lunch....with a couple of options.  I've got to go check out a couple of bridges, see if they're passable. :cool08:   Or, IF they're even there. :crazy:

If not, there's ways around them all. :bike-038:

Did you contact Johnny? He should be hauling his bike over from Paint Bank

Well that was the plan, but I have a project that I have to finish within the next week or so. I won't be able to make the ride this year.  :sad-055:

Starting to sound like 5 pounds of bacon will do it....but, then again :idea-013:, can you really ever have to much BACON??
