    You are taking a camera, and something with which to shoot video from the bike, right?

    RIGHT? :cool:

    It's so hard to get a good Wi-Fi signal.

    Anyhoo...yes I brought a Camera and my GoPro.

    Day 1 (Ontario to Winchester, VA) I got wet wet wet. I also lost my spot tracker . Fell off somewhere and stopped tracking.

    Day 2 (Winchester to Fancy Gap, VA) Rode skyline drive in the fog and rain...was quite scary. The Blue Ridge Parkway was nice. Quite Beautiful.

    Day 3 (Fancy Gap to Robbinsville, NC) I took the interstates so I'd get to the Dragon quickly. I saw a 4th gen on my way there. Red. We waived. I also saw a 2nd gen on the Dragon...and a nutter on a 6th gen flying down the dragon...blew by me like I was standing still. :p

    I'm going to bed now. Tomorrow I take the lower half of the BRP North back home. :)

    If it was a metallic silver bike it was probably that nutter Switchblade. I'm pretty sure he can ride the Dragon with his eyes closed.

    Yeah...silver VFR with hardbags. When I get home I'll upload the video of him flying by me on the dragon. I didn't even see him coming...I just heard a noise and then *VRRROOM* he was past.

    I felt kinda bad...like I was in the way. Usually I see someone catching up in my mirrors but he seemed to bend space and time.
