Good Luck with the steering donut, Adam!

I have downloaded glympse to my iPhone. As soon as I figure out how to use it, I will follow your progress.

That was not a fun job to do in a driveway on jack stands (the 89 euro is still on my lift in pieces)

Edit. New rack going in tomorrow then alignment on Wednesday. Doh!

And for gylmpse you just need to share your location to the tag. You basically set up like your starting a tag yourself, then they all connect.

Thank you!

Posted this on the SITM thread. I guarantee you that if you drive 'the Tail of the Dragon from the TN side, it's a road/drive/ride you will never forget!!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Anyone who is attending SITM and wants a GREAT drive, I recommend the 'Tail of the Dragon', but approach it from the TN side. I drove it last week on the way to a BMW event in Asheville NC, and really loved the sharp corners, steep road going up from TN. Frankly I found the NC side of the 'tail' pretty 'ho hum'. Enjoy it if you do, and keep the tires on the road surface. Lots of bikes, but whenever I caught up to one or a group of them, they were very courteous and pulled off to the side at the first opportunity and let me pass. The 20 year old BMW 840Ci loved those climbing curves.

Have a good time at SITM

Alex, Michael and myself are doing US 33 down into Waynesboro then the BRP on Friday. I did Andrew's Alchoa run a few years ago and it was epic, and yes the Dragon is fun too.

Save driving everyone.

There's always next year. I came pretty close to canceling myself due to work and family. Take care.
