Unread postby Marc K » Sat Oct 18, 2014 8:53 am

I'll post first since I have a few picks. Met up on Hwy 181 to follow Bob and a stream of bikes up Hwy 181 to lunch at Los Arcoiris Mexican Restaurant in Pineloa. Left in varying paths ! Met back up along Roan Mountain State Park and the photo op on the Overlook. Good to see everbody again - some pics - y'all post yours !

Was indeed a lovely day for ridin' ...great to see the gang again after a long-ish layoff on my part, and to meet so many newcomers to the party!

As one of the newcomers I want to thank you for a great ride. Awesome conditions and great roads. The pavement around lake James is quite tasty!

Fun ride! Says a lot about the quality of drivers to keep 11 folks going without it being fubar.

Great day. Thanks for letting me tag along. All the roads were new to me and incredible. Double Island - who would design a road like that? Unbelievable. Expect it will take some time for me to be able to keep up with you all, but fun for me nonetheless. Thanks for keeping me on track Broz.

Steve, glad you enjoyed it. Next ride, remind me (or whoever's planning it) to send you the route in GPX format, that way you can stay on track more easily. I want to see how the Navigon displays routes anyway, always looking for a good iphone backup to my Garmin, which could crap out since its getting old.
