Jim and I left Gadsden, AL. on Thursday morning, once again at daybreak. Did I mention that I'm glad I have my heated coat? It's been very cool, especially in the morning, so the coat has felt really good. There's one thing I've noticed when traveling in the East........you don't make very good time. It took us over 3 hours this morning to ride 142 miles, but we finally made it to Dawsonville, GA. I got to put one mile on my new Triumph, and it will be shipped to my house soon. I'll include a picture. Jim and I then rode towards Franklin, NC., our home for the next several days.
This is a very beautiful part of the country, and the roads really cater to the bike and sports car enthusiasts. We followed 3 Ferrari's through the twisties, then stopped to talk to the drivers after the invigorating ride up the mountain and down the other side.
Tomorrow we are riding Deals Gap, and the Dragons Tail. This road has 318 curves in 11 miles. It should be a fun day!!! If I have time, I'm going to try and do about 100 miles of the Blue ridge Parkway.
By the way..............if you double click on the pictures, they will show in full size.
Watch for tomorrow nights update...........................

Great pics (nice Farrari!) Looks like your bike at least is having a good time. You might want to consider a photo or two with you in it so we can actually see who is driving the bike! Have fun on the winding Deals Gap - I'm not sure I'd survive it!
