Just spent an incredible day blasting paved and dirt roads through Northern Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina with Daniel on my 1200 GS, and also with Roger Rogers and his son, Mason Rogers. Might see some rain in the next few days, but that is part of why it’s called adventure riding!
Had a great pizza dinner at a local micro brewery, followed by a leisurely walk around Sylva, NC., with Daniel. We even found some kind of Dogwood tree in full bloom!
Today was about 230 miles of pure twisty goodness!! Five more days to go!

I think I got about 2200 miles out of it. The TKC 80 front still looks like it has about 50% of its life left in it after the same miles. On some of the stuff we were riding, I was REALLY wishing I had mounted the TKC 80 rear instead of the Shinko 805! The Shinko was really sliding on the unpaved stuff when it got loose, muddy, and/or off camber (sometimes all at the same time). It did great on the pavement. You would not have liked the howling I made as I weaved my way through the country side on the paved roads ;-P
Some came out great, but he took a LOT of them 
It may take me a bit to sort through them all. I also have tracks for the routes for each day. Although, in some places there are gaps in the tracks because the trees were so thick they were blocking the GPS satellite signal!
Basically, to make it more readable.
