Yea i have always wanted to have one of those "retro" bikes. Unfortunatly, i can really only afford 1 bike at a time. Ducati has some nice ones, but damn they're expensive!

Allentown, PA ---> Harrisonburg, VA (will include some of Skyline Drive) ---> Alcoa, TN ---> Atlanta, GA
Return Trip: Atlanta, GA ---> Johnson City, TN ---> from there, I'll find the Blue Ridge Pkwy, take it all the way up to Skyline Drive, up to Rt. 66, then 81, back to 78, and home to Allentown, PA.
Oh yeah, this is a business trip. Will connect with other riders across the country going to the NAFEM trade show in Atlanta, GA.

Hey, if you do get to Colorado (Denver Area), I would suggest Denver --> Golden --> Boulder --> Estes Park --> Rocky Mtn National Park --> Grand Lake --> Denver. Can be done in a day. I've done this trip twice, once in a car this past summer, and once on a rented Harley 2003 Heritage Softail... Fucking amazing!!
The weather looks good for my trip. Between Skyline Drive and the Blue Ridge Parkway, I have about 550+ miles through the mountains. Holy fuck, I can't wait. Weather should be nice too.
