Hey folks, I am going to take a solo ride down to Tennessee from South Jersey this weekend. The plan is to meet up with friends and family at a buddies cabin near Tellico Plains. The ride is about 700 miles each way and I hope to Ride the Dragon on the return trip.
I have picked up lots of good advice on the Forums, but I still feel a bit intimidated by so many miles in just a few days.
This will be the first real test of my Sargent seat, I have ridden over 6000 miles on it, but rarely more the 70 miles at a sitting.
There are so many things that I could have done, but the bike feels solid and has been running well these past few months. I just turned over 38000 miles, 10000 miles more then I had on it when I bought it 19 months ago. It is likely that I won't have much chance to post along the way, so if I don't get back to pages until next week; this is a note to let the group know that one more rider is hitting the road for a few days.
Take care,
John
