I had a great ride last month. Did not ride the V8 but rode the Road Glide from Huntsville, AL to York PA where we toured the H-D Motor Company Assembly Plant. It was interesting to see the bikes, all the gas tanks, fenders, etc. waiting for final assembly...neat tour and it was free.
We traveled back through Gettysburg, visited the NASCAR Museum in Charlotte, and rode US 421 "the snake" with 489 curves in 33 miles, covering three mountains and one valley. I had the best bologna sandwich and a Dr. Enuff from a general store along the way...that brought back many memories of when I was a kid walking or riding my bicycle to the store.

I really enjoyed riding the snake over the Dragon...it was not as crowded and more relaxed ride without having several sportbikes behind or zooming around you. It was fun! For lunch we would find a Mom and Pops cafe...the food was worth the trip alone.
There were three of us and we used the Scala Rider G9® Bluetooth® communication and intercom systems...all three of us were paired up and we talked old times, told stories, and laughed so much during the ride. The Scala was excellent because we could communicate about the traffic around us. If you ride and don't have a communication system...you're missing out the best part of the ride.
Overall, it was a great motorcycle trip. Now I'm ready for my next trip...have any of you traveled US Highway 2 from Maine to Washington State? It looked like a good ride with no large cities, some deserted towns and buildings, and lots of long two-lane roads going across the states.
Anyway just wanted to share my trip report...
