red bud's tripp'n

was glad i was going south






tire warning







junk

in south carolina i passed the big butt, i mean peach





more construction





needed gas, close to dark

in sc i saw more spyders than i've ever seen

i remembered a fancy titty bar at this exit

been 20 years since i'd been to it

so i though i was over due

to bad when i got there, there was a locked gate and plywood over the windows


oh well i need to get all the miles in i can while it's still light out






out of the corner of my eye i noticed something going up my forearm


i reached over and grabbed my medical id before it bailed





did i mention spyders

same station another lap





back to louies for some shrimp nachos and a couple of sweetwaters





i got back on 85





yea yea






got home about 10:30ish

good seeing family and learning some more

good weather even if it was a little chilly

What's the deal with the tire warning?

REDNECKS!

Always thought I wanted tire monitors….. That trip was Good stuff!


And Fearless K25 is done,“ kaput” finally. No more burning PCB’s and its not becoming a national park or a racetrack like they wanted.

i wish i knew, tires are good

modern day electronics

now ya know where i get it from

"wanted tire monitor" NO>>>>>>>>>>>> don't do it







thanks, i really enjoyed it



fearless, i don't know about him

sunday morning i hadn't heard from any of my play mates


so i loaded up robin






we rode down to jacks in braslton for brunch






saw some folks we knew

bar was packed so we found a spot out on back of the deck

man that stuff was good ........

we sat and smoked




admired the kudzu blooms

then we eased off towards home on back roads

must have been selfie day









we were taking a right at a stop sign, where gavin was rolling to a stop

he said "ya wanta beer "

well, yes, yes i do

ya'll remember gavin don't ya

he was the one checking out the 9-11 raffle bike a couple of weekends ago





yelp thats a dang good looking bike right there
after our beer he went south and we went north


my kinda rider, he was headed down the dirt road across from us to see where it went

back into gainesville

back at home we did honey do'es

and admired our new cat




robin actually got it to let her pet it last night

i got home saturday night was 623 miles, sunday i'm pretty sure robin and me did somewhere between 40- 50 miles



both good days

but i will say, while i was keeping the dash in the corner of my eye. i noticed how many times the dumb thing says indian or has the symbol

reminded me of stopping at @rtwdoug 5 or 10 years ago

he looked at my tire and said you need a new one when it goes, it's gonna go quick

he helped me take the wheel off, found a tire in town

hauled me over there to get it and helped me put it back on

while i was tring to get the dumbass saddle bag back on (he finally had to do it)



i noticed him walking around me and the chrome slug and mumbling to himself

when he said this thing says harley or has the symbol 40or 50(i dont remember the number) times


when i got home the indian ain't much better

can't remember if i mentioned this last friday being cold till i got to the hotel

saturday morning i hopped on the bike and rolling up the road i thought, why didn't you turn the heated seat on





so today after work

none of the usual suspect s wanted to ride

let's assume that because i didn t call or text any of em

but they didn't call or text me

so.............

i rode up into lula (maybe 5 miles from me) they were having a fall festival, every year i hear of it after wards and say i'm going next year





but this year i was there and didn't even stop,


rolling on

murica






i was real close to home but was on roads i'd never been on





how wrong is that

saw a lot of hollween stuff, but this was the only decent pic i took







i saw a lotta cool stuff

shoulda stopped and checked out the dead people





not sure where i was at i stopped at this lake




as i walked around with my earbuds blasting moccison creek

some dude was taking pic's of my bike, i smiled and nodded a ''hello" to him

but after i fired up the bike and pulled off

i realized he was proably tring to ask me something

once again, i'm pretty sure some else is thinking whatta asshole




when i didn;t even hear them


oh well

when i came out on the other side i realized it was the resvior for commerce, i'd worked on the water plant on the other side of the lake a long time ago

i'd actually thought about the bbq joint in commerce for something to eat, but i didn't want ride that far


but apperently i didn't tell the bike





i had a brisket samwich and fried squash, hop dang diggity & a highland galtic

omoving on before my phone died and the sun went down
