This past Thursday, Lewis (1Joker) & Kristina and Martha and I headed out for a quick trip to Copperhead Lodge.  Lewis just had his first service on the new SERK on Wednesday and we were ready to help him introduce it to some of the best riding roads in the country.  Instead of just taking the shortest route to the lodge, we turned the day into a full blown riding day through the mountains of North Carolina and then made our way down to the lodge taking the least straight roads we could find.  We only had a couple of sprinkles along the way, but 20 minutes after we arrived at Copperhead Lodge, the skies opened up!



Here's a picture of Lewis and I with the SERKS at Bridal Veil Falls.

Friday, we took advantage of Chief's CHL Hat Trick Route and could not have asked for better weather.  Here, we're taking a quick break on our way to the Cherohala Skyway.

Here's Martha and Kristina adding some scenery to an already beautiful backdrop along the Cherohala Skyway.  No traffic on the Cherohala this day and this ride was nothing less than incredible.

A stop in Telico Plains for an awesome lunch at the Riverstone Restaurant (formerly the Bistro on the River).  The menu is even better and the people are so friendly there.  A must stop for anyone riding in the area.  Special priority parking spaces for motorcyles and food that hits the spot perfectly prepared.

Lewis, Kristina and I with the bears overhead.  Now Martha is on a mission to find those bears.  I have no idea where she's going to put them, but I'm sure she'll let me know.

An over the shoulder shot of Lewis and Kristina as we made our way to the Dragon.

Lewis and Kristina at Deal's Gap.  It was Lewis' first time on the Dragon and he and the SERK were amazing.  We were never pushed by any of the rockets and we even pressed one for quite a while.  Law enforcement was heavy on the Dragon Friday, but passing bikers always alerted us to their presence just in the nick of time.  One was strategically located just to mess up one of Killboy's photo spots.  How rude!

Great pics, Lilbear.  And that Bridal Veil Falls Road (whatever the # is) has some truly tough 'switch-back' corners, doesn't it?     har.  spyder

I see you with a long sleeve shirt.
I see jackets on.
I see gloves.
Weather a little chilly?

I guess that SERK is broke in now?
I'm betting Lewis will have a taller windshield soon!

Both bikes looking great!
Don't let him get a 2 into 1 Rinehart!

Saturday, we had an inventive ride trying to exploit all of the great roads in the North Georgia mountains that we could.  Our travels took us to Brasstown Bald (highest elevation in Georgia).  We have been there several times before, but this was the first time that we actually took the tram up to the observation tower.  The views from up there are simply beautiful.  The feeling you get when looking around 360 degrees and seeing the wonder of the surrounding mountains is indescribable.  Here are the girls enhancing the scenery again.
