well my plan is to head up there next summer (2010) try'n to get Rae (The Chi) and Ambly to go as well... actually the plan is to head all the way up to Newfoundland... figure'n about a 15 day trip... with easy days... 400-600 miles... all about 7-9 hrs of pure riding (not including gas, food, or photo stops)
I can't fuck'n wait! |

Yeah that's the nice thing (as if there's only one ) about being single... I can leave pretty much any day I want... with only work to clear it with.
Slab sucks... but it's 1000x worse when you don't have someone to ride with IMO... riding up to Trip's (Knoxville) from Rae's (Ft Walton Beach) was all slab... but it was awesome to just shoot the shit at the gas stops... though it killed our travel time... 9hr trip took 12.5 |

Unless I meet up with some fellow CF/TWFers that know of a more scenic route, I can guarantee that my 600 mile trip to Suches will be total slab for 550 miles.
Just thinking about it makes my ass hurt.

well Trip lives up that way... and I'll be damned if I wont' hit up the Gap while I'm there... I'm not sure we have anyone on the way... Ambly is in Huntsville... but that's about it I think... unless there's a CF refugee along the way
