Racking Up Some Miles - Motogeezer1949_imp - 10-05-2016

Started out Saturday the 1st from Altamonte Springs FL. (a few miles north of Orlando). Took 6 other friends along with.
Backroads, no Interstates. First night in McRae GA. Next two nights Waynesville NC. Last night and tonight, High Vally Air Park, Suches GA.
This coming Thurs, Fri, Sat, Leeds AL. for the Barber Vintage Festival.
1286 miles on this trip to date, lots of great riding!!!!!!
I put the stock seat back on so I could sling my saddlebags and barrel bag on the back.
Final plan is to arrive back home in Winter Park either late Sunday or whenever the heck I get there Monday. Everything's been good so far, except for other riders, 3 tires, one rectifier. The CB, so far, has been trouble free.

Sounds like a blast. Wow 3 tires and a rectifier. That's not good luck.

Ride safe the rest of the trip.

you covered some miles and it sounds like fun . there was no way i could bring my wife and gear on the CB so that is why we took the cage.
