Well I had hoped to meet you guys for breakfast and a little riding but plans have changed and I will be riding to st. Petersburg also leaving on 4-26. Hope you guys have a good ride and breakfast, and that weather is favorable for all.

Well...this isn't a ride report, really. More of a PRE-ride report. 6 riders on 5 bikes will be leaving from Chicago on Saturday on our way to the great roads of The Great Smoky Mountains. Forecast departure temperature is 41f, but should warm up somewhere around Indianapolis. First night in Cincinnati. Second day should be awesome with The Ferret leading our group through some of his favorite roads in Kentucky along with stops at other points of interest and traveling by ferry across the Ohio River! We'll see if I can make a few posts along the way, but it may have to wait until we return to Chicago. 59hr07min until KSU Big Grin

Cool! I got up at 6 am to read the ride report. Now it will have to wait until after the MotoGP...".................... Just kidding. Looking forward to the report. I see you got to the Cherahola Wink

That last pic is terrific. Background almost looks like a painting.

I have the report written out longhand. I'll post it this week, but from a PC rather than my iPad...too much of a pain to insert multiple photos from my iPad.

I think there is a 10 pic limit in a post, so after you post 10 you will have to have someone respond before you can " new reply" add more. I think that will work.

I think if you stop with ten images and then start another post to add more images they will combine as long as someone does not get in a post ahead of your second one. Huh Hope I made some sense with that.

The pics thus far are super. Let's see some more.

Yes I believe that is right. You can post 10. Then someone has to respond/ reply, before you can post anymore.

Actually, post 10, then add another post, and so on. The trouble is you can't ever edit the post as the BB software aggregates them.
