TRem Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 This note is to Bailey Rock. As I cannot get ahold of the deer-slayer and was going to share room, (Left voicemail and have not had a return) I need to find out what's going on. Was going to head up Thursday at lunch as I am only 2 hours away stay thru Saturdays ride and now am not sure I have a room. If there is anyway of knowing a status it would be great. May need to find a room to share somehow. Thanks for helping a first time TMAC. Just found post and still cant believe the power of a deer vs bike. Get well real soon Terry!

Member Contributer grond1234 Posted May 21, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted May 21, 2013 Well did the Georgia run today and think my tires are near shot - litre bikes and bad riding eats tires - sent a msg to Mike at RideWNC - anybody got his #? Stopped by Microtel and looked at the sad Timmy bike - very sad - hurry Seb and Carver he needs to take his monkey for a ride!! KanadianKen put ring terminals on wife's Zumo mounts so hopefully it will now stay powered up - props to Ken They are doing construction at the bottom of the road out of Highlands to Warwoman - bout 2-3 miles worth - have to follow a pilot car. 60 out of Suches seems to have a large number of tar snakes and they are slippery when leaned over - slid the front and rear a couple of times - no biggie just unsettling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't go all the way to Morganton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer grond1234 Posted May 22, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted May 22, 2013 Well rode to Wheelers early today for tires. Left at 0730 and got there at 0830 - determined to save time by being first in line and was. However didn't get bike rolled in till near 10 out about 11 then up to the Dragon to scrub in new Pilot Power 3's (still better then the there at 9 out at 130 last year). Bit weird to get used to the pointier profile - all good though and they are scrubbed in now. Met up with all the folks at the Dragon and did a few passes. Was hot and friggin humid. Wife met me up there about 1230 (not an early riser ). Had lunch and did a run with Timmy chasing me down. Then headed back to motel - dry over 28 good run - then rain heading along river into Franklin. Left bikes at hotel and packing up cabin to move over there tomorrow. Weather looks great next couple days and need to wear the new tires out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I realized you were headed down this year Rob. I have been wanting to meet you you a while now and especially thank you for the help and detailed write ups in the front end swap out that inspired and instructed me with my own! Plus you're the only other person I've seen turn his front wheel to the right when parking. :)Was planning to be there, but family emergency has come first and I'll be missing this year's event.
