Greetings from Charlotte / Waxhaw

 

The weather around Charlotte has not been to conducive to exploring new routes or even jsut riding for enjoyment... More rain than recent years, but we need it for sure. 

Still plenty to do in terms of getting ready for Spring Tours and our very own two-up rides that we did not get to do much of in 08. 

 

Our Tour planning continues and we are working hard on a proposed tour to Switzerland to team up with our journalist friend Daniel Riesen.  He has convinced us that we need to bring some friends or tour guests to Switzerland for a Tour of 60 Passes!  Sounded like a great idea, so we are trying to organize a schedule that works with our other Tour dates and takes advantage of the best weather in August.  Details shoudl be available soon, so stay in touch if it interests you.

 

This year we are lucky enough to get the Cycle World Motorcycle Shows to appear in Greenville, SC opposed to Atlanta, GA.  We hope it turns out great and will be there to check out all the new bikes and gear.  February 20-22 is the date.

 

Concierge Rentals: Details are getting finalized on our Motorcycle Rentals with Concierge Service as well.  We are opening up our "work-books" to our Rental Guests so they can come to the Smoky and Blue Ridge Mountains and enjoy a Tour in their own time and pace without having to work around our Scheduled Tour Dates on the Calendar.  Information is up on the website about it.. and we are excited about it.

 

Suzuki Motorcycles, V Stroms especially, seem to be in short supply... Many of our friends looking for a back-up bike to their BMWs have decided that V Stroms are the way to go... Now there are not too many available at dealerships in CA and also in NC.  So ifyou find one out there while yo are looking you should grab it!

www.suzukicycles.com is also a place to look for additional dealers and product information.

 

Well to everyone that is a fan of motorcycles.. ride safe in January... keeping the rubber side down.

 

See you all in Greenville at the CW Show.
