We rode Friday and Saturday. Probably just hang around camp today (Want to enjoy the river and beautiful trees). I don't think I've ever seen this area look as pretty as on this ride. Specially at the top of hills and river crossings. Perfect weather too.
Thanks for showing us those little back roads Richard.

A few pics. Great ride. Thank you to @Trail Boss for organizing. Old & new friends. My group's pace was fairly spirited. A couple offs & tip overs. My off was our last water crossing on Sat. I picked the wrong line and did a slow low side. Amusing and brief bath. Good fun!

You decided to take the 690! How was it? By looks of that tire not riding Sunday was a good idea!
 
I borrowed the 690 from a friend to see if it could replace the vstrom i don't ride. Im sticking with my current set up. This '09 had too much footpeg and handlebar vibration. Front end handled i bit weird for me also. Glad I had a go at one.
The tire picture is of my friends 1190. He's a bit crazy. Didnt have any issues other than dropping it on the James River.

Hoping one of you guys knows of a rider that lost his nice Klim backpack. Our camping group ran across this laying on one of the the North Junction RV Park roads. I left it at the RV office for someone to claim. Hope it finds its home!

That's a great photo!
 
In those rocks that tire looks like it's just begging to get a flat, lol.
 
Thank you Richard and all of the others that helped put this fantastic adventure on.

What a great bunch of riders TWTex is.
