TC,
Great report, and pictures. It's always nice meeting/putting faces to people from this site.

What a fun day with the Ocean to Ocean folks.  We did not feel like strangers, and I am really looking forward to heading West to California to ride in their part of the country.  8-)   As a matter of fact, I really wish TC and I could have joined them Ocean to Ocean.

 I really enjoyed visiting with Heidi.   :)  All of the guys were different characters, and I enjoyed hearing their stories.  JC, I don't want to hear of any more AFLAC claims!!!!!   ;D    :o   BE SAFE!

The whole experience was great as it was my first time on a ride over 50 miles.  Even riding in my comfortable "throne" rocking to the tunes, TC almost wore my a$$ out!  The hardest thing about having such a kick a$$ stereo is that I have a hard time sitting still...want to dance...TC does not allow that kind of movement while he's driving!   ;D

When we got to Chattanooga it was SO good to get a hot shower, and of course I had to put on my latest HD purchase to go drink a couple of brewskies!   [smiley=drink.gif]   [smiley=drink.gif]    It was the end of a perfect day.   [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

AK...what the hell are you looking for man?  Checking out the road ahead, I guess... ;D ;D

 I'm betting he's thinking........ (DAMN  :o) this must be where Jeff Foxworthy got all his "You might be a Redneck if" material its everywhere I look. :-/
 Heck, that even looks like the place where "Bubba Shot the Jukebox" right next door. Dukes of Hazard have to live around here somewhere........... [smiley=nixweiss.gif]

Yea, you don't want to get too far off the beaten path or somebody might make you "squeal like a pig"  ;D ;D

I think AK was glazed over at that point, and wondering "what's next"...he's a super guy, and I'm proud to have met him.  The whole group reacted like we had known them forever!!  Couldn't ask for better company!  Hope to see them again soon.  Having never been in this part of the country, and seeing how beautiful it is, hopefully they won't be strangers.  I think AK is considering MV...hope so.  Wish them the best for the remainder of their trip!!

Just spoke w/the "Cali" crew, and they are in Statesville N.C. awaiting Hubbard's arrival. Planning on visiting Tilley's H-D before heading back to Asheville N.C. Weather is not cooperating today (raining) so they will spend more time doing indoor sightseeing then riding. They are having a wonderful time on their adventure meeting members, and seeing all the sites.

Unfortunately they didn't get a little further north so I could have met them and shared some of the area around here w/them. Oh well, that will have to be on the next "excursion", better still this gives me a reason to do like they did in reverse. Ship my bike to west coast and ride back east.  [smiley=idea2.gif]

I believe they mentioned being in Chattanooga tomorrow to meet w/Jock to start the trek west. With the present forecast of the T.S. they should be riding away from rain (at least the T.S).

That's the plan as I understood it...ride into Chattanooga on Tuesday, so hopefully they will be riding away from the rain and more importantly, the TS.  Hope the weather cooperates with them and they can ride back through the Smokies area on the way.  Then on to Memphis.
