Riding just for the sake of riding

My girlfriend left for the beach Saturday night so I figured Sunday would be a great day to get out and ride. I headed out late Sunday morning and rode into Bristol, Tn. From there I hit US 421 and rode the lower half of the snake up to the shady store for lunch. After lunch I did a total of 3 passes on the upper half of the snake, and on the third I headed up into Mountain City, Tn. From there is was off to Boone, NC and then a little stop in Blowing Rock NC. From there I hit the parkway for a bit, then my lunch started disagreeing with me. So I high tailed it back home without stopping for the last 150 miles. Needless to say my arse was a bit sore, but it was a nice fun ride to say the least. I wish I would have taken more pictures but I really wasn't feeling well so I just focused on getting home. I did get a few pictures taken of me while I was on the snake though, http://www.photoreflect.com/store/Th...7&g=203H043L04.
I'm on the white Versys, and I just ended up purchasing the last one

If anyone is ever down this way and wants to do some riding feel free to hit me up.

So cool! That last pic is a really good shot. Sounds like you had a great day, minus the gastrointestinal distress.

It's always a great day for a ride.

You show good form in all your photos, with your head always turned, looking for the exit of the curve.
