Watch it there snippy!

You need to watch the Bywayofmotorcycle Motoscavy again. I took video out there! Watch this link, go to the 3:00 minute mark of the segment, and you will see the hills that are along the Talimena Drive. Chi, I give you video! Just ignore my southern accent.

Yeah, we have that kind of riding in San Marcos at the Devil's Backbone.

You should see the Three Sisters (sometimes known as the Twisted Sisters) out by Leakey. It's got nothing on Deal's Gap, but it's pretty good for close to home.

I'll admit I don't really have time to look at *all* the pictures right now, but from what I did see, I don't think either of Tracy's bikes are suited for trail riding.

I didn't mean for you to come ride with us, just hang out at camp in the evenings. There is the Talimena drive and the winding staircase close by that are marvelously twisty, paved roads through some beautiful mountain scenery. If you haven't been, you ough to check it out.
