Deals Gap NC/TN trip early June.

Great pics, and great form. I used to ride with Daryl (Killboy) way back when. Like when he used to smoke people on a beat up ZX6. Back in those days I lived in the mountains but I still couldn't hold a stick to him on the Gap.

Thanks! The locals are the fast guys that's for sure. Hanging with Kamal last visit and again this visit is very entertaining and informative.

I'm shaking the rust off as well. This is my first season doing any real riding in almost 8 years. I had bikes, but hardly any time to ride. But now, I'm very happy to be actively riding again (and racing mini bikes).

I bought new leathers, gloves and helmet in the last month, so I should look even better on the pics from this trip.

Ride it early in the morning, and late in the evening.

Yes. Cops definitely are there and definitely care, but most times cops aren't around. When they are on the gap, the universal tapping the top of your helmet to warn other bikers. Pay attention to when others are warning you.

Mornings and evenings are definitely less covered by cops as mentioned.

And no cops at night I'm told.

Another Panigale showed up with an RSV4 yesterday. We rode up and down the gap and a very quick pace. Should have some pictures showing up on the photographers soon.
