Trying to keep up with an experienced and skilled rider on a Tuono riding VA mountain roads while on a DL1000 loaded with at least 200lbs of gear. I had an inflated ego from railing the Blue Ridge Parkway for about 8 hours that day.

Yup, that was it. Dry eyes = blurred vision = going too slow on curvy roads = many angry cage drivers behind you.

( I would pull over once 5 or so cars got behind me, let them pass, and start over again) Fun trip (really).
