Skyway ride - Sunday: niner / niner @ niner

[rmcelroy]

This Sunday a buddy of mine and I are meeting up at the Huddle House in Sylacauga around 9am for breakfast.  We then plan on riding up until we hit 281, then ride back down.  Anyone interested in joinin' this little dirty ride this weekend?

Here you go! This is the ride we talked about last night 600-1 in Talladega!!

[rmcelroy]

you are missing a zero.   ;D   

6000-1

but yea, it's a fun little ride.  nothing too aggressive or crazy.

I doubt I can get away but what do you guys think about riding 6000-1 with  a WR that doesn't have bark busters, skid plate etc. It also hasn't hit 600 miles - break in.

that'd be fine.  the last guy I did the skyway with had an XT (sport touring bike) and street tires. 

he did have a skid plate, but he almost had to have one since he didnt have shit for suspension travel.

you'd be fine on a WR.

That's a fun road with some great views.

Screenshot of Talladega Ranger District motor vehicle use map shows 600-1.  Not sure where Google got 6000-1.

That was the first time I had done the full round trip route.  Good times we had by all.

Awesome! Haven't done this one in a while and need to do it again soon!

Thanks for leading Rob!  I had an absolute blast!  I was logging our ride and captured a GPX file(attached).  Thought it might help others find their way if they are so inclined.
