        • Made it to Princeton WV to meet MartyA. Long day in the saddle and quite warm at times. Some traffic issues but arrive in the fading light of sunset.
          Tom gave me quite a fright earlier.
          To morrow Hungry Mother state park and the Snake (421) and some other interesting roads in Tennessee before planned arrival at I H 4:00pm

            • OK, for those of us not going to be able to make it... WHAT HAPPENED?
              Try your hardest to be the kind of person your dog thinks you are.

              You can live to be 100, as long as you give up everything that would make you want to live to be 100!

                • XSives converging on the Iron Horse. About 30 already checked-in. All smiles. Some out riding.
                  Others in front talking. Some setting up tents. Maybe a few taking a nap.

                  More arriving so Pink Shirts are busy.

                              XS Southeast Rally is underway. Had 65 check-in and all 105 shirts are GONE.

                              Iron Horse is obviously in the remote mountains to the voip internet is not too robust. So thats why not too many posts yet.
                              Plus we all have been busy talking and eating and riding.


                              Saturday after lunch on US276 before heading up the mountain to the Blue Ridge Parkway

                              Photo on Blue Ridge Parkway (Highest Point) of Ride Groups #2, #3, & #4

                              Groups #1 #6 went by earlier so they are not in photo. Group #7 doing something somewhere?

                              if these uploads work i will try a few more. I'm at the Iron Horse chilling out while everybody else is out riding.
                              Most everyone over in Tennessee on the Sunday route.

                              Weather has been just spectacular. Sunny and about 90 in the valleys late afternoon but about 70 in the higher elevations.
