Men's Fall Trip 2015 w/more pics

[the Ferret]

Well this will be the third Men's Fall Trip report I have done for this forum. Time flies when you are having motorcycling fun. For those new to the forum in the last year, each year some of the men in our family and maybe an invited guest will take a week in Sept and go for a motorcycle ride. We have been to the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Dragon and North Ga area (2009), the Upper Peninsula of Michigan (2010), West Virginia (2011), our home state of Ohio and northern Kentucky (2012) Did the Skyline Drive, BRP and back to the Dragon area again (2013), Central Kentucky (2014) and this year decided to go back to the BRP and ride some of the side roads and attractions off the Parkway you miss when you ride straight through.

We decided to get on the BRP at Fancy Gap Va MP 200 and use Little Switzerland at MP 331 as our base to ride the roads known as the Diamondback Loop (RTs 226 and 226A) and Devils whip or Devils Staircase (Rt 80) and do the Murder Mountain run from Little Switzerland up to Roan Mountain State Park in Tennessee and back all on curvy back roads. In addition we would take in Mt Mitchell, Grandfather Mountain and visit the Wheels Thru Time motorcycle Museum in Maggie Valley N.C. before heading home.

This years participants are the same as last years myself, my son B, my younger brother Randy and B's father in Law Jimmy.
