It was pretty cold when we headed out after breakfast at cracker barrel but we got to the north entrance around 10, ride was alot of fun and the scenery was great with the leaves beginning to change colors. It was a function for my church back home so we made the drive up to VA with the bike in back of the truck.





My Father in law rented a road king for the ride











There was alot of scenery that i didnt get to catch from some of the much better panoramic views, ill have to make a trip out again if we get a warm weekend

Beautiful photos, Ryan.  I grew up in southern VA; those pics really take me back to family road trips up to W.Va, PA, DC, etc, up through the mountains.

Pretty cool to see that many types of bikes all riding together. Guys that ride for the ride, not the brand or style of bike.

Thanks for the pictures.

Thanks, the low bars i actually got from a triumph site as they are also 7/8 bars, however i wish i had bought a small riser the prevent bumping the tank and decreased turning radius, but on the other hand ive never really cared for the comfort things when appearence comes into play, as long as its safe anyway.
