Seen on the road (September 17-19)

While on the way to Louisville, saw these motorcycles rolling though Tennessee. This bunch was from Canada; was mostly Harley-Davidsons but included one Honda Shadow. Bike that was taking up the back was a trike. There are some beautiful roads in that area, and some great riding can be had. Some of my favorite roads to ride in North Carolina are mountain roads (speaking of riding, good news is that the bike is done at last, now hoping that when I get back to Carolina that the weather which the last few days has been wet to say the least) is dry long enough to get it home, or at least not too wet to where a drive is possible).
At a rest stop in Tennessee came across these bikers who were also doing some traveling on a beautiful day. This was on September 18 (previous photo on the 17th). The one bike is a Harley Davidson (in the background) an a Yamaha FJR 1300. For some reason have been seeing a lot of FJR 1300's of late. A nice touring motorcycle with a 1300cc 16 valve in-line four, the bike has a lot of nice features. As to the Harley, will have a few new 2012's to show off in my next post; Harley-Davidson has the new bikes out now, and as always they are fun to check out and see what "The Motor Company" is up to.
Saw this Harley-Davidson (you certainly would see it on the road, a good color for visibility) at a gas station in South Hill. There are bikers and then there are bikers...this guy was totally ready with a type of set up I have never seen...Harley for the open road, and bicycle for when he parks the HD. Certainly a unique set up, and this bike was mounted in an interesting way.
Enjoyed checking out the vehicles that I come across on the road, and often see some interesting bikes and groups when I do so. I have met some really interesting people on two wheels, and sometimes as seen here, even when I am not on two wheels. Motorcyclists are amazing people!
