There is a local road (a little over an hour away) that is a biker mecca, which I haven't ridden, until today. The stretch of road runs from Liberty NC to Asheboro, NC (not to confuse with Asheville) The land gets a little bumpy and the road is actually quite challenging. While its not the Dragon, you have to sit up and pay attention. The scenery is great, making it hard to decide rather to ride intensely or relax and enjoy the views. There are also quite a few one lane bridges and some of those are in the apex of turns. I also made my first attempt at video. I did something wrong while downloading, so there's no sound. I'll have to work on that. The clip is at the start, before the road got interesting. I decided to keep my hands on the bars during the good parts. |

Way to go DrDubb - looks like your hard woods are starting to bud. All green down here, with wildflowers everywhere. Bring your vid camera to the Rally - we'll have some fun. Which camera mount do you use?

I didn't use a vid camera, just an old nikon pocket camera on a RAM mount and through the windshield. I did clean the windshield before the ride.

The only thing that jiggles on my bike is my stomach.
