Thanks cruiser I just ordered a set today I just got back from a trip to the dragon and the diamondback. While taking a break I noticed the crack in the rotor carrier not a good thing. I had a not so good feeling the last part of the trip. Like said before, I've had no problems with mine. I wore on...

I have a two-Queen bed room reserved in Andrews, NC (about 18 miles south of Robbinsville) beginning Oct 17th, checking out on Oct 20th. (3 nights) Looking for someone that would like to share the room and split the costs, $160 for all three nights. We wouldn't necessarily have to Ride together but...

Good Luck with them. As I said, I've had no trouble with mine. They work well and look great on the bike.

Bought mine off ebay. Have been very happy with them.

Just booked our room for 9/11-9/15. The block of rooms are gone abut they will still charge the $89 for 3 or more nights. looking forward to putting a face with a name. Be prepared, I think there is an 11% tax on rooms in NC also. Brings the total up to about $100/night but split between two buddie...

Skyline Drive is a National Park. If you have a Senior Pass, No further cost to drive it. Just show your Pass.

C-dub, Skyline Drive is only 105 miles long but the max speed limit is 35mph. The BRP, however, is 469 miles. The max speed limit is 45mph and in congested areas (there are a lot of them) the speed limit is 25mph. If you take less than a week, you'll be shorting yourself. Better to maybe only plan o...

Made the trip down the Skyline Dr and the Blue Ridge Parkway,... WOW, 12 years ago already.
Taking a full week is doable, any less and you might as well take the X-way.

I ordered the America Rides Maps several years ago. A very good set of maps. I use them whenever I Ride in that part of the country.

"Block of rooms are held under "GoldWingDocs" at $89 per night if staying 3 nights, otherwise $92.75 per night. Get a roomie and the rates become half. All rooms will be held until August 1st 2019, with 72 hour cancellation." Sept 11th to Sun the 15th,... Wouldn't that be four-nights ? Would the ra...

Well, looks like I've missed a lot here! Been working my tail end off since the last one. Looking forward to the trip (just not sure I'm quite ready for the "Dragon"). Keep us posted. Not a Biggie if you don't Ride The Dragon. ALL the roads in that part of Tenn/NC make a Great Ride. The weekend is ...

There IS one planned Al...

I'm sorry I just noticed this post... I buy quite a but from Amazon. I'll try to use this 'bookmarked link' from now on. It's a challenge for me though. I just switched to a new laptop with Windows 10 and having a very hard time with it. I can't even find my bookmarks most of the time and when bookm...

The "FAVORITE RIDE" section in this months Rider is an article entitled, "Virginia's Blue Ridge". This northern section isn't ridden as much as the NC end but like the southern end has some very beautiful views. If your not a subscriber it's worth going out and buying this issue for this article al...

Maggie Valley would be a nice day ride and culminate with a visit to the motorcycle museum. Justa heads up,... Wheels Through Time Museum,... Ya just can't do it justice trying to see it at the 'end of the day'. https://wheelsthroughtime.com/ Three or four hours, you'll still wanna come back. I per...

Al, Maggie Valley is certainly a great area to Ride in but personally I found the hotels to be a little on the high side. I don't know anything about Little Switzerland. In past years, I have stayed with groups in Robbinsville and Franklin, NC and was happy with the prices and certainly the area to...

OK, WHO DID IT?? My CC has been compromised...AGAIN! Over the last two/three days there have been some charges on my CC mostly from Georgia but one from NY state also. This happens every year or two. Discover ALWAYS is Great and removes the erroneous charges immediately, cancels my account and send...

I'm finally Home after stopping at a couple of places in Indiana and another near Hillsdale, MI to see old friends. It was great meeting and making new friends at this the 2nd annual GWDocs Gathering. Looking forward to next years gathering where ever it may be. If I may make an early suggestion,.....

I made it 'part-way' home. I stopped in Bellefontaine, OH to see and old friend. (he's aging gracefully) Tonite I'm in Celina, OH waiting for my favorite restaurant (The Fountain) to open at 4:30am. I may not (read WON"T) be there that early but later when my retired local farmers come in for their...
