Fall Smokey Mtn Trip

[Chapomis_imp]

Well, I guess I'm too late to answer the question about 441 v. 40.
The rain for the next couple of days will change your trip a bit but it sure looks like you guys had great weather and got some good riding in for the first part. Hope you enjoyed it as much as it looks like you did. Enjoying the ride along.
Asheville is a great area to visit and the booming brewery and food scene is fueling an amazing growth.While you're wander the Asheville region check out neighboring Lake Lure area too.

My wife bought a Can-Am a while back, won't ride with me at all now. Fantastic machines, good fit and finish. My 3 wheel fix is a sidecar rig, concessions to Father Time come in many flavors.

No, not too late. We are in Asheville for 2 days because of the rain, then we head to Brasstown for 6 days. Headed over to Knoxville next Saturday via ??, then up to Lake in the Sky to a friends cabin (off the Foothills Parkway) for a total relax.....and more riding

I'm trying to get my Mrs to drive the CanAm so I can spend more time on my CB
Left Cherokee this morning and headed east on 19, passed the beginning of the BRP (or end). 19 was a bit of a challenge in the pouring rain/fog/mist driving the land yacht towing the Spyder.

Next stop, Wheels Through Time. Great rainy day entertainment. The owner fired up a couple of things while we were there.

Fun way to mow the lawn, if it's flat

Too bad about the rain Alan but isn't that museum special. The owner is usually there and always fires up some old bikes to entertain his guests. Hope you get many more great pics that you can share with us. Be safe and enjoy your trip.
