The meeting spot for this ride was the Shell Station in Ardmore. Steve, Rich and I rode there and where soon joined by 8 other riders.

We had a mix of bikes including 3 scooters, a dual sport bike, a Harley, a Triumph, and a variety of Japanese bikes. We had riders from Alabama, Tennessee and Georgia.
We headed out for some fun country roads in Middle Tennessee.

Interesting effects from the light and my camera.

These were real country roads. We didn't see any traffic lights on the ride except when we rode into Lewisburg later in the day.

The colors where past their peak but there was some color in some places.

I think I met you on Hwy 53 at Ready Section Rd about 9:30, Natalee and I saluted from a Maroon Honda van cage. :'(
As usual, great pictures. Thanks for sharing.

The food was great, the company was great and the owner and his wife came and talked to us. If you have never been there put it on your to do list.

For me it's not just the bikes and the rides that make riding so great, it's also the people.

It was a great time, and it wasn't done yet.
We rode some more after lunch.

We got stuck behind a slow moving truck that was using too much of the road for me to feel comfortable passing so I pulled over to give it some room so we could enjoy this nice curvy road. It also gave me the chance to take a pic of some of the group.

We detoured into Lewisburg because a couple of the bikes had limited range and there where NO gas stations along the route. Our two riders from Tennessee headed home from there and the rest of us headed back South.

We stopped back in Delina to take this pic. There were too many cars here to do this after lunch.

One rider broke off and headed for home before Delina and another shortly afterwards. The rest of us rode back to Ardmore.

We stopped in Ardmore, Kicked some tires and then split up and headed for home. I had a great day. A big thanks to everyone who joined up for this ride.
Very nice ride and pictures are great. I wish I could have made it. Maybe next time. (how many times has this been said????)
