Vulcan Riders Association Ride (July 11,2009)

Couple of cell phone photos I took today, got an invite last night to ride with the Vulcan Riders Association (Charlotte Chapter) to Morrow Mountain. We all met at Troutman's Barbeque on NC-29 in Concord, NC. During the business meeting we had lunch. I went with the bbq on a bun topped with red slaw and vinegar sauce; took a while to get used to that when I got here but really enjoy it now. For the ride we had 10 bikes (11 counting mine) and headed out around 12:30. Riders rode all sorts of Vulcan motorcycles; Mean Streak, 1500's, 1600's, 900's, and even a couple of the old 750 Vulcans. Came from all over the area.
I was just at Morrow Mountain last Saturday in fact, but fun to ride with a group, and they were an interesting bunch. The second photo is all of our bikes at the overlook. I love the ride there, go through some really nice roads, and the ride to the top is a curvy bunch of fun. Due to the Richmond/Concord living thing going on now with me, not sure how often I will be able to ride with them, but sure would not mind at all doing that again. Hot today and somewhat humid, but had a fantastic time and a great ride. It is always fun to ride with a group, especially a group with the same kind of motorcycle that I ride.

Tomorrow, before going back to Richmond Sunday night or Monday, I have one last ride left, and am really looking forward to that one too. Will post on that tomorrow or Monday!
