Rocketcitymadman Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Chick and I along with Lady Victory and Speedy (the rider formaly known as Big Bird), and Red Dragon rolled into town around 7:30. This was our first VMC meet and we couldn't have picked a better one. Thanks to all. Thanks to BA and BR Jackpot and the ones above for a thrilling time spent on the Dragon's tail this morning. Thanks to all the above as well as Paris and Russell, Road Runner and especially Tigger and Mrs. Tigger for the guided tour of the "Tail of the Tigger!" Everything about the past 5 days was spot on!

Guest Guest Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Jackpot Red;, we enjoyed the riding up to 6053 feet on the parkway Sunday. Sorry about the bee sting! We got home around 9:00 after picking the kids up from grandpas in Rogersville. Found a GREAT new route from Cherokee to LorettoTn.; Up 129 to the end of the dragon, back down, then follow speedy through Chattanooga .,Lost Ya,ll somewhere around the Monteagle mountain. Had to dodge deer on 64 a few times. Now its back to work. Thanks for a great weekend. The Bama girls can really pull a mean trailer through them twisty roads!!

golfer Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Nikki and I left Cherokee at 1:00 p.m. Sunday and arrived at home at 6:00 a.m., yes, a.m Monday....17 hours on the bike with stops...Very interesting with temperatures going from 100 degrees to 49 degrees in the same ride (per the Vision gauge). Got a little chilly at about 4:30 a.m. in Northern Michigan...Ever ride any typ of distance with glowing eyes staring at you every 1/4 mile? The deer were definately out. Very nice to finally meet so many people that I have wanted to meet for a very long time. We have an outstanding group of memebers, I am proud to be a part of it. A humongous thanks to Danny, you are incredible. Big thanks to all who put this together, it was fantastic. Big thanks to Jim for leading a fun group and not putting us to sleep doing the speed limit. A big no thanks to the roads in North Carolina....Now I hate Michigan and don't want to ride here anymore. A really big thanks to my Vision for allowing me to go on long trips now. If it were not for the Vision, I would not have gone to the meet. Ok, when is the next big event, I am ready...

Thanks again to everyone who helped get me out east, I had a blast and it was awesome finally getting to meet Kevinx, Lloyd and Scott. I know there are some I did not get to meet and I apologize.

The mountains, roads and the meet where all the best.
