Same plan for me, mostly slab to Boon Wednesday, going to try and hit 16 from Beckley to Marion if I get out of work at a decent time. FYI, I am peeling off in Cherokee and heading to Franklin for Blue Crab Bisque on Thursday. Let me know if they actually pick a hotel in Boone. I believe the plan is the Hampton Inn in Boone. I want to meet up with you for a sampling party. Are you getting your part today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you getting your part today? I was pulling into their parking lot when you posted this. Got 'em. They look real good, not used too much so I am very hopeful. Will put one on the second I get home tonight of course. It was quite the operation, two giant metal barns in the middle of a corn field. Peeps stripping wrecked bikes all over the place, more peeps entering the parts on ebay, and even more peeps shipping stuff. I expect @Casper will come up with some lame reason at the last second to not stay in Boone as part of his plan to ditch me. So keep me posted please. Yea, we both need a few drinks. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I may leave an hour earlier to get through Cinci then. Figure I should be fine if I hit downtown around 5am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howabusa Posted June 5, 2017 Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 There are some gravel drives, but they aren't usually a problem. I have ridden this road a couple of times. I think it is only a 16 mile loop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should still be clear at that time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
