Maybe, things get pretty confusing in those dark, late-night, drunken orgies.

Again, cool pics Don.

Also, thanks for including the free "Hooter's Bike Wash" Coupon with the CD.

Not sure how your DVD player works but the photos are in folders which in most cases doesn't work well with a player. They are in the folder called Photos.

Hey all....just thought those of you who went on this ride would want to hear about this. We had a couple of the Misfits injured in the past month. If you guys remember Brian aka- Triumphant on here,, he had the new Triumph motorcycle and ran tailgunner on the second group. He dropped his bike a few weeks ago,,,almost a month now. Bike has been in the shop. But other than some road rash and a couple nasty scars on his legs he is alright.

Then a couple days ago Shifty, the Road Guard we used on the second group who rode the tan Concourse, he had some J*ck*ss lock his brakes up on his car and Shifty was forced to grab a handfull of brakes and he went down. The car locked them up and then when Shifty went down the cager sped away. His bike is pretty messed up and he has alot of bumps, bruises, and some road rash. We are all hoping he will get well soon. If you don't remember him he is the one that had the big scraggly beard and the loud laugh.

Just thought you guys would want to hear about this. Be careful out there.

Yep, remember them both, in fact Brian and I shared a room, nice guy, easy to get along with.

Wish them both my best wishes for a quick recovery.

Did Shifty think the cager just panicked when he saw what he did, or does he think the cager was messing with him, and tried to make him crash? Either way, it sucks, but if it was done on purpose, well I'l hold my tongue, but that would really suck. Did he report it to the cops? I'm guessing he didn't have time to get a plate number, but even a description of the car, with time, and place might help. They could have past, or future complaints that Shifty's complaint would add to,

But thanks again for the well wishes,, I will definitely pass them along.

I just hope in 2008 the Gatlinburg, TN trip is in the middle
{Monday-Thursday} of theweek.
That would give me Friday night, Saturday, & Sunday to ride there, with Friday, Saturday, & Sunday to ride home.

(June 15), we are planning a ride to "The Tail of the Dragon" in Deal's Gap, NC. If you've not heard of this road, it has 318 curves in 11 miles and is America ’s number one motorcycle and sports car road. The nearby Cherohala Skyway is quickly becoming number two with its remote 60 miles of scenic mountain highway. The area also has other roads less traveled, but just as exciting.

We are heading out early Friday morning (June 15) and driving directly to the area. We plan to tear up this mountain and surrounding areas. If your wanting to gauge your motorcycling skills, this would be the area to do so. However, if you are unsure of your skills in the twisties, this would not be the trip to participate on. We plan to stay the evening (Friday night) in Dahlonega, Georgia and make our way through north Georgia back toward Alabama, Saturday. We plan to ride through the Weiss Lake area in Cherokee County and then home. Probably a late afternoon-early evening arrival.

Rooms should run about $30.00 for the night per person. Charles (Goldwing) will be putting this ride together, and those that have been on some of his rides know they are in for a great trip.

If you are interested, respond here or PM me. Right now there are 6-8 of us planning to ride. Charles is working on a powerpoint presentation of the route.
