4 day run to Memphis!

[AtlLaw]

Leaving out in the morning with the rest of my Chapter for the Club's annual national meeting.  This year we are in Memphis!  Not coming back until Monday.  We have two chase vehicles hauling stuff and OL's with one pulling a trailer, "just in case!"   

Even the wife-mate Kathie, who doesn't like bikes or bikers   ,  is going!  Gonna be a heckofa party!

Have a great time, Richard. Ride safely, and get some pictures to share with us if you get a chance.

Now Richard you jist don't look to me to be in shape to run to Memphis in 4 days  or at all for that matter. I think you should ride instead of running.

That's a great point GB. Given Richard's current conditioning, he might be better served by starting out with some slow jogging, and then working his way up to a full run.

Jist trying to help a friend out. We don't wanna see you take off running to Memphis and passout before ya get outta Hotlanta and spent the weekend in intensive care. Jist ride there forget the running.

I tell ya, it was a good thing that I decided to take Bill's advice and ride to Memphis rather then run...     MAN IT WAS HOT!!   

Put a little under 1K miles on the bike and only come close to diein' twice.  Once in a construction area somewhere in Arkansas, and the other on the way back to Jawja.  Got jumped by a 2+ ft. road 'gator that tried to break my foot then wrapped itself between the front tire and frame and attacked my Gremlin Bells.  I got to the side of the road and beat him into submission though.   

I tell ya Bill, we took 78 through north Alabama.  That sure is pretty country up there.  Real nice ride.

Man, I'll bet you need no caffeine in your soda, Richard. Sounds like your life is already stimulating enough.

Happy you had a nice trip.

Yup some pretty country up in NW Bama along US78. That's the way we go when we head out to OK for the PD shoots.
