One airlift to Knoxville, one broken clavicle, broken shoulder, 5 broken ribs, and a broken tibia......complete with an hour long roadside wait up from the site a bit waiting to hear if he was even alive. Yeah some of the shine of that road has rubbed off for me.
Yeah, the federal tickets come with mandatory vacations to the gap too. You have to go to court to get your punishment no matter if you just want to pay them and move on and not fight.

Yeah, seeing something like that is always terrible. However, there wouldn't be any roads for me to ride because I know people that have gone down almost on all these roads.

Well I liked the Cherrycola and the Foothills for the scenery too. It wasn't just the riding-ness of them for me.

Maybe it was because I felt a lot of pressure at the Gap that I didn't like it as much.

I mean, don't get me wrong, I was still grinning ear to ear for most of that road!

That was pretty cool, although you used a slightly depressing song
