It was definitely a trial run for the 2012 rally!
#1 -- Thursday, 4.7.11 The first day. Swiped the saddle bags off my lady's bike. Can't say they look the greatest on a Seca II but they do the job! The rear luggage I found on clearance at Cycle Gear a long time ago -- man I'm glad I got it.
#2 -- Thursday, 4.7.11 On I-77 near Fancy Gap, VA. I don't think I could have made this trip without a cramp buster. The seating stance on a Seca II puts enough pressure on your wrist that riding for a good long while wears your hand out.
#3 -- Thursday, 4.7.11 First night's stay in Salem, VA.
#4 -- Friday, 4.8.11 An hour or two north of Salem. It was starting to rain and we had to put on the rain suits -- which I'm very glad I had. Thank goodness my gauntlets were waterproof. Joe Rocket Velocity shoes certainly weren't! I don't mind the rain but as we predicted is was wet and cold. 45 degrees or so.
#5 -- Friday, 4.8.11 Rained all day. ALL DAY. Had to stop every 30 minutes to warm up. Took us 8 hours to go 245 miles -_-
#6 -- Friday, 4.8.11 Wet and more wet.
#7 -- Saturday, 4.9.11 Stopped somewhere outside of Chambersburg, PA
(still need to go through the pictures of Gettysburg I took on Saturday)
#8 -- Sunday, 4.10.11 I don't know where this is, lol. But there's a dirty XJ.
#9 -- Sunday, 4.10.11 Rest stopping in Virginia
#10 -- Sunday, 4.10.11 Heading back down I-81. We stayed in Christiansburg, VA.
#11 -- Monday, 4.11.11 Instead of taking 81 to 77 to 85, we branched off 77 and got on 40 towards Asheville.
#12 -- Monday, 4.11.11 Time to hydrate
#13 -- Monday, 4.11.11 Stopped in Waynesville? Waynesburg? North Carolina.
