Hi everybody,
Everything is going fine. Sorry I haven’t added anything to the blog for over a week – but I have simply been having too much fun riding my butt off with some new found buddies. I will detail everything about what happened in North Carolina soon, but basically I meet two motorcyclists at the top of a mountain on the Blue Ridge Parkway road in North Carolina, who turned out to be the best blokes you could ever meet – Larry and Lester. Originally riding up to the North Carolina to see the Autumn colour leafs on the advice from Amy, without my knowing I had accidently found myself in arguably the United States’s Motorcycling holly mecca! The home of roads called ‘The Dragon’, ‘The Snake’, ‘Little Switzland’ – I was in the middle of motorcycling nirvana!! So for the next 4-5 days, we have been wearing our tires out carving it up. Yeah Ha!!!!
I have many photos and stories to tell about North Carolina while staying with Larry and Alabama while staying with Lester, which I will try to upload in the next few days.
I am now getting ready to ride to New Orleans this morning, which will take 5-6 hours. I am heading south and looking forward to some warmer weather. Then I am off to Dallas and will be starting the long hike to the West from there.
Check out some pics from North Carolina and Alabama here.http://picasaweb.google.com/jamesc71
Well its 12 noon and I have a 5 hours ride ahead to New Orleans... looks like I will be arriving there a bit later than I wanted. Oh well. Wish me luck. Talk tomorrow.
