Got home Sat. afternoon after riding in the rain for about 200 miles, but all is well. I stopped in Pigeon Forge Fri. night and went to the "Spring Fling" Sat. morning and boy was that a flop. Paid $15 a person and seen it all in 15 min.
My thanks to Ken (Wog) & Jackie for a good time in Fla.

Left Norton Virginia about 0930 this morning in light rain .... ran through one patch of real rain then it cleared up and cooperated the rest of the way .... just arrived at Oldewing's and opened a welcome beer.

All in all a great ride with a great bunch of folks.

More thanks to the Wogs for super work and Mr Honda for good old bikes ....

I figured he was innocently referring to Gord's post back on page 14 ;)

We plan to be on the road at first light and in Lenoir City TN around supper time or so tomorrw (Friday).

Gonna miss riding with Claude and his exemplary posture but I understand it's out of his way.

I'll try and remember to take some pics .....
