It's dipping into the 30s consistently here.

I can definitely confirm cold temperatures. I was riding my motorcycle around NC/TN this weekend. Grip warmers and multiple layers of clothing barely helped in the early and late hours. Be prepared to freeze.

I had good intentions to get one by winter but never did either. Oh well, a door sleeping bag and hand warmers have gotten me through some rough nights. It is just the getting out of the bag part. 🥶

If you don't have one a buddy heater works wonders!
 
The weekend after the Annual Meet, and 2 weekends before GSMTR, seems like a nice time to head up a big hill. The normal Parkway Ride formalities have been scrapped this year with GSMTR taking the larger share of attention, so no waitlists, fees, shirts, etc.

Plan for self sufficient wilderness/overland camping for now, and we can work out any other comforts later. Friday meetup TBD but likely early afternoon around Asheville (but probably not Sierra Nevada).

Who's in? :steer:
tentatively yes for me. new member haven't been able to come to any meeting because they keep getting canceled :bang:

Anyone not able to make this, don’t forget there is a Rigs and Coffee

I may have a potential member in a four runner with me if that's not a problem.
 
Hi, just checking in. What day are we taking off? Still Friday?
 
Any other updates for now or just sailing into the weekend?
 
Yeah if we are conveying up need to.know when and where?
 
I too am leaving Friday after work, possibly can meet up. But will be late arrival.
