  1. In yesterday's Dahlonega, GA newspaper, The Nugget.

     

    "Trooper not indicted in biker's death".

     

    A local motorcyclist was recently killed as he returned from a friend's funeral by a GA State Patrol car making a U-turn on Hwy 129 to go after a speeder.

     

    The DA said "He was doing his job, he turned on his lights, he made the Uturn, he didn't see the individual".

     

     

    Substitute mother pushing a baby carriage for motorcyclist and try to defend it as"He was doing his job.":soapbox:

    A human life is a human life.

  3. Sorry to hear about your tumble, but glad to know that you both had adequate gear on. Be sure to let the insurance company know about the gear you lost, in many instances it will be covered too. You might consider letting the insurance company also handle the tow, as that is part of the coverage you pay for.

    Heal well,heal soon both of you, and remember, be careful out there!

  4. From a ride on Sunday the26th of October. Three of us on our Tour De Luxes headed out through the Dragon, over to Maggie Valley and back through Smoky Mountains National Park by way of the Blue Ridge Parkway. In Maggie Valley we went to Wheels Trough Time, a great little museum!

  5. Once people start treating the area like a public road instead of a personal racetrack you won't have some jack ass starting forest fires with his wrecked bike and the LEOs won't have anything to do except wave as you ride by. Just my .02 worth.

     

     

    Something less than sporting when you start calling people you don't know a jackass, that's all.

  6. We saw the bike and it's rider yesterday on the way back from having Wheeler's put a pair of Avons on the Buick. The bike was toast, there were two LEOs there and the rider was on the opposite side of the road shaking his head and commiserating with a riding buddy.

    Hey GunnyButch, get some fiber in your diet!
