Racey Rides the Tail of the Dragon!




The professional pics of me riding the tail are on http://www.us129photos.com/, under "Motards, Trikes, Dual Sports & Scooters". Don't know what a Motard is, but it doesn't sound very nice.) They're pretty cool & there are lots of them (17). When I first looked, they were on page 11 & numbered 434-450. Then the numbers disappeared never to return. I ordered 5 of the best & will post them here when they arrive.
Took a long ride to Robbinsville yesterday & saw lots of pretty water along the way. I ventured up a road toward Joyce Kilmer & came across this pretty little water fall. First cast, caught a nice little small mouth bass. That was it for the fish, but the rocks were gorgeous. I think they're igneous, formed by fire/'volcanoes. It looked liked they'd been sliced then turned on edge.
This morning I rode up to & across the dam & found where the Appalachian Trail comes down. That sure is some rugged country. Made me tired just looking at it!
May go to the big town tomorrow, Asheville, for the Belle Cher festival. I've been once before & it was terrific. It's so isolated here, I'm missing people.
That said, I met my campground neighbors in the pool yesterday & they're from Ft. Wayne, IN, home of my sister-in-law, Suzanne & her husband, Dave. We had a very pleasant conversation while floating along the "river" in the pool. Great way to beat the heat.
Time to ride....more tales later. Off to find a water fall.

  1. finally found your pics, they were on page 15 when I looked, but no #'s. You're right, not a very nice category name, almost as bad as Liquor Sickle--ref to those who lose license to DUI and then drive mopeds. Vespa fits your ride just fine :)
