Hey guys just wanted to share a few pics and small vid of my ride with some friends up to Caesars Head this weekend here in SC. Was gorgeous weather but it was pretty congested and still lots of sand on road leftover from winter so no real high speed runs possible. Anyway, here are a few pics and vid from my onboard cam going down the mountain. |

That's a heckuva good road, ain't it? Seems every time I go there it's exciting. That was where I passed my first sportbike on a Harley...last time I went there on the Concours I darn near ran up a cop's exhaust pipe...he let me go...  If there was established camping up there with showers and all, I'd be all over it.... |

Yeah it is a great drive. When it clears up some I will try to get some more exciting footage.

It is in Cleveland,SC. It is basically in upstate. I live in Greer/Greenville and it is only about 30 minute (if that) ride to get to the twisty roads. If you want you can ride on to Brevard,NC where there is a higher elevation and some other great roads about 45 mins farther from Caesars Head.
Hppants,I hear you. They certainly make for a fun time. BTW,ever find that chin fairing for sale from that guy?

If you didn't tell us, I could have swore those are the roads I rode today in Arkansas, HWY 16. South Carolina is beautiful. Great video....thanks for sharing!

BTW,ever find that chin fairing for sale from that guy? My neighbor, who bought my 700s, has since sold the chin fairing to another NHF member, and sold the rest of the bike to a non-NHF member. Sadly, RWB is no longer with us. |

Which chin fairing? Are we talking the RWB one that came off your bike?

Great vid. Highest point here in South Jersey is a landfill!  We have a few nice roads here and there, but nothing like that.  Thanks for sharing! |
