Rooms are available at the hotel if anyone is considering coming up. A group of Harley-riding NYC firefighters had to leave early. |

There was a Buell S3T there last weekend. Closest I could get this year. |

Ha! We have Buell-sign!
Buelltours and crew came up this morning. We’re currently south of Black Mountain having lunch at the Straightaway Cafe. |

Yea, I ran into this last year. Apple puts a few extra lines of code in the picture files to change the orientation. Non-Apple systems ignore it. So us Apple guys can’t tell the pics have been rotated. |

Just had a couple of interesting cages turn around in front of the hotel:
Probably NOT a good idea to stop in the middle of the road right past a blind curve that people are notorious about driving too fast through. |

I’m gonna see if I can convince Fuell to do demo rides next year. Mike, the hotel owner, let these guys try out his “Juice” electric bicycle and all who tried it were impressed:

Well, we checked out this morning and are getting lunch in Marion. Not much of a crowd this year but it was still a good meet. The big news that I confirmed with Mike last night is the Skyline is for sale. I suspect it’ll be in new hands by next year; no telling what that will mean for future meets.

Wow, that seems like a real gem for 1.2mil - hell, that's the cost of a 1300 sq ft house in California. |

He said they’ve already had two offers. It’s being advertised in a couple of motorcycle magazines as well. |
