Let's see those bikes

After riding in the Appalachians, does it make riding back home feel kind of lackluster? We have similar scenery here but unfortunately can't (legally) ride any of it. There's a few guys I know that go down to West Virginia and rural Pennsylvania every year for riding the mountains.

 

Yeah, that's possibly why I go to Tennessee 4-6 times a year. There are several other states to explore that have great riding in that area. Might be why I'm considering moving down that way.

 

I forgot to post this one. First ride in Tennessee after rebuilding/painting. Probably more than half way through the ride and still getting used to the new power and delivery. Coming around a sight right hander with a little 2 track tire rut to use as a berm. Rut was not deep at all. I was a little on the inside of the rut so figured I'd use the throttle and rear tire to kinda slide more into the "rut" that wasn't really there. When I throttled er she came right on around in a big ol power slide. Totally unexpected by me, I was along for the ride. Bike ended up facing the opposite direction we were going and slid down into the low side berm that was about 3+ feet deep.

Notice the orange paint in the dirt above the rear fender. The scratch in the dirt where my handlebar sits came from the foot peg.

 

this yami was a nice bike
