First long ride

[retnavyflyr]

Left Tuesday morning to head to my trike installer for breakin inspections (5 hour trip on a nice cold morning. (Gerbing jacket liner and gloves were worth their weight in gold. After Mountain Trikes did his magic I headed west on the Blue Ridge Pkwy to hit 441 to cut through the National Park to Pigeon Forge (great ride), to see my sister who was vacationing there. Had a great visit and headed out aobut 0800 Wednesday morning to tackle "The Dragon and Hellbender" (what a blast) before catching the Smoky Mtn parkway back to the interstate. Rolled into the garage about 1715 witt 800 mile under my belt in just short of 15 hours driving time. I am hooked.
