Maggie valley June 2019

I just want to include myself and what I had back in the mid 70's... a teething ring. Ya'll old farts!

Mid 70's ???? Black light posters, Led Zep and Lynyrd, a chopped and raked Bonnie and a bong. ALL well used. You had to be there.

Was brought up to respect my elders as in you called them Mr & Mrs at no time did I ever think they were my better, I remember onetime I got a hard kick up the arse for not helping a woman who lived at the top of the street with her messages and my Dad (and so did my Mum) had a good right foot.

Amen

Lol. I'm trying to figure out where to put my cane holder on the Vision. I have a very nice hand made custom wooden one made for me by a friend but afraid it would get water damage (Rainman) and that wouldn't be good. Mountain walking stick might be in order. I'll see about the other part for ya.

Riding from Oklahoma to Tennessee in the driving rain non stop except for fuel and a Waffle House break.......silent respect between brothers.

Lost my old partner a couple years ago at 82. We rode many miles together on and off the job.
He had to go to a 3 wheeler his last few years and carried a cane as well. Had a scabbard that mounted it horizontal along the right side from the rear of the saddle.

Can you imagine the trikes we are gonna end up with? Yesterday, my buddy at McDonalds wanted to hear it. He is 80 now, and opened his car door to watch. Did a little 20 footer for him. He wouldn't stop talking about it today. So then today I waited until I hit the street. Cold tire blew off until 2nd. Can't wait to hear these comments. Probably get barred from McDonalds

4 1/2 months out. This morning my wife told me she had the long weekend in June, ( 20th thru 24th ) off.
She had listened when I talked to her about another ride to Tennessee/North Carolina. If you Captains are taking in new comers for the get together, we will see all of you then.

Everybody is welcome. Make your plans and join the fun.

Working straight through this month. Today first eight hour in a long time. Weekend eight's then on to twelves for the rest of the month. Cam's ain't in yet anyhow. In shipping but that is one slow boat coming out of Australia. It don't matter to Fuc&ing cold to work on it anyhow. I do not mind riding in the cold but working on a bike in the cold different story. Either way i'm in on this one. Plenty of time left for upgrades and tires. Figure it is time to adjust the nuts on the neck. Get some more stuff powder coated. Top tree bracket and fly screen brackets and clamps. Should look and run sharp. Would not miss this run for nothing.Rooms reservations made all over the country. Even a fancy joint in the Outer banks. Figure I'll tear that place up. I think it is one of those joints were you need a suit and tie to get in. No plans on packing that i"ll just buy one while am out and about. Could you image the guys face as you pull up for the fancy parking where they park the vehicle for you The beer breweries in North Carolina should be a kick along with the overnight stay. Meeting folks in Maggie valley that i have talked to on here for the last couple of years should be fun. Still know a few folks around Nashville That are hard core party types and would love to see me again. That will be my first stop. Kind of picking up on a theme Here? Let the wife take a few trips here and there and a few cruises but for me all I have known for the last 19 years is a time clock. TIME FOR A LITTLE BET OF BAD BEHAVIOR. More than ready. Somebody wants to ride along such as the guy from California on the Indian am game. Prefer to ride alone. Long trip all by yourself with no time clock and no one to please just places to be and people to meet. Figure at 61 years old and starting to hurt all over might as well say the HeL^ with it and make ONE LAST RUN. See you in Maggie Valley Joseywales. Looking forward to the good food you and that dude from Texas can cook. Beats the heL& out of my peanut butter sandwiches.

Guess I will be the first. I will not be able to attend Maggie Valley in June. Although I was truly looking forward to meeting all of you I still do not feel stable enough on the bike 2 up to even take the chance. When I booked I thought that would have improved over the following few months but when I tried to hold up the bike with my wife on it, it was not pretty. So, rather than putting myself, my wife, or anyone else around me in danger I will bow out now.

I do have a room available at the Motel. If anyone wants it, let me know. I will hold it for another week before I cancel it.
