Sure wish we could go to something like this. Even though we have two trikes and could take the whole family, my youngest daughter just couldn't take the 5 hours worth of ride down. I don't think she could take it even if we split it up into 2 days going down.

Pick a day you'd like to head over there and we can add it to our rides page
Hey bro! I never heard of the arboretum, so did an Internet search and here is what I found! http://www.ncarboretum.org/ It looks like a fun place for green thumb people, I am sure Sara would love to go!

I'm thinking Patty would love to go also.... this could turn into a ride!!
Finally got around to registering myself and my friend Patty. Now you will see how I got the name DblTbl
:Joker3::Joker3:
:Joker3::Joker3:I will do most anything for a trike ride!
I think Patty & Sara will get along just fine! I am sorta a victim here, but hey, I will do anything for a trike ride!

Glad to see you are registered!
You will have to explain how your nickname came into being, that should take at least an afternoon at Maggie!
The name Maggie holds a spot in my heart as I was introduced to her "drawers" in the Marines! When shooting at the rifle range, if you missed the target a white flag was waved in front of your target to show you had been awarded "Maggie's drawers." The drawers were sure to draw some Sgt's ire, and during boot camp your DI was sure to make you unpleasantly aware of your "drawers of honor!"
Have a GREAT summer!

Mary and I are going to try and be there. Time will tell if we can get away. Got a few big changes happening at the shop that we've been working on, and one of them is set to take place the last part of August/first part of September.

Finally! Glad things worked out so you can make it. Looking forward to meeting Patty and riding with you again.
Ed and Dennis, maybe hit that pulled pork sandwich bar again ?
I make it a point to visit as many botanical gardens and arboretums as possible so this is on my list of "things I must do". Count me in.

Sounds like a plan Zammy!!
Yep, red truck, red scoot, red trailer, looking good !
DblTrbl sez:
Looks like I'm going to trailer the trike to MV this year.......(going to kill me to lock her in a trailer)...but I'm sure she will like her new home....
Yup, same here. We have always ridden, but this year we are going from Anderson, MO to Maggie Valley, then to Red Wing MN and back in just over a week. The Admiral didn't think she could ride 2500 miles not including the miles at the destinations comfortably in that time, so in the trailer goes the trike and we in the truck. Hope we can find a place to park a crew cab Ram truck with and 8' box and a 16' trailer in the hotel lot. Also I'm bringing the trike and my '13 Triumph Bonneville, and we will camp in the trailer over the weekend in Red Wing.

I've tried everything I could to arrange my schedule so that we could be in Maggie Valley.
Unfortunately we have a new facility we are working with, and there is no other date we can start with them than September 1st.
We will be working thru that holiday weekend. And on thru September 8th with them, to get them rolling and up to speed. Most of those days I will be at their new facility in Memphis...not even at our own shop.
I hate that we're missing it...gonna miss the Hot Bike Tour also. Just no way around it.

Sorry to hear you and Mary can't make it Kevin. We were looking forward to meeting you all. But business is business. You gotta do what you need to. Maybe next time.
Carolyn and I will be so sad to miss you...we wish you both the best!!
Sorry you can't make it but some things are unavoidable.Hopefully see you next year.
Comming into the area (8/3 - 8/9) three trikes , two from Florida and one from Illinois. Will be staying in Bryson City and riding the entire area all week. Is there a particular place and time we might find some of y'all grouped up for a meet & greet. WE have been comming to that area for several years and have been known to visit Legends and Salty Dogs, on occasion....Plan on visiting Wheels Thru Time one day.

Best bet is the Best Western in mornings for rides or evenings for driver tuning. We will be there early on the first if you went to pre ride with us. six 1 six five49 eight zero nine 5 four
