TN 96 to 56 - First long ride

EsrTek · July 4th, 2011, 03:15 PM

Took my first long trip today, about 5hrs making 2 laps around this area.

Had lots of fun, seen only 1 sportbike on trip, while getting gas. We chatted, but I quickly ended it when all he could ask was if "I could ride a wheelie on it".
Seen a few other bikers here and there but not as many as I expected

Added a pic at Center Hill Dam Bridge area... I made a few other attempts at scenic lookouts, but all had lots of ppl at them.
Had lots of fun but I really need to find a someone/group to ride with. Every other biker I seen, minus the sportbike (but he was 2 up), where in a group of 2 minimum.

Sorry, if you werent so far away, I live up in Sevierville/Knoxville, and there is a lot of 250 riders pretty close. Never met any of them (yet (hopefully)). Just keep your eyes open, you'll find some buddies.
