Dammit Dave, you should’ve given me a call when you were in my neck of the woods. I live about 50 miles from where Tennessee meets North Carolina at the Georgia border.
I rode into the north GA mountains briefly on Friday, 1-4 pm. But I got caught in the rain and headed home by 3 PM.
Another really nice sunny day. Temps around the mid 60s*F. Rode another 68 miles today.
I was expecting to need gas on this ride but wasn't certain how far I'd get before I would need to stop. I know that when the last bar starts flashing I have a little more than 40 miles at least. Turned out for this tank I had a little over 50 miles to dry. Only needed just under 20 miles of that to the gas station I prefer to fill up at. 53+ mpg on this tank. Put 3.07 gals into my 3.7 gal tank which meant I had 33 more miles to go.
I see nobody's RE-started a "riding games" thread for the state of North Carolina, since the great computer crash of 2025.
So tomorrow I'm going with a current ST-1300 owner (and me on my Honda Shadow) to ride into that state,
start off the Alphabetical riding challenge with "Andrews." Get a picture of "Big Blue" that giant custom motorcycle
at that bike shop just outside of Andrews, and the "Big Blue" pic will be how I start the "TAG" game for NC.
