- This Friday I plan to scoot on up to Highlands, NC and try out the Highlands BBQ Co. for some lunch. Same old roads but a place we haven’t ate at before so I want to give it a try. If you would like to try it out with me, let’s plan to leave the Key Mart parking area about 10:30AM. Hope you can make it. Dan
- A good turnout for a spectacular fall day in the Upstate of South Carolina. There were eleven riders including Dan that wanted to take in the colors of the trees and the curves of the mountain roads today. The riders included Gadget, Lesley, Rob, Pat, me, Jim (Wing), Bob B., Bill, Denny, and Ed (in full fluorescent green). The start of the ride turned into a non-starter because Ed's battery failed to generate a current to get the Honda started. However, thanks to Dan's cables and Rob's German engineered bike, they were able to get Ed's Wing started and we were off to the mountains. We took a not so direct route to Highlands. Not everyone goes through Georgia to there, but we were all glad that Dan picked this course. The temps were cool, the skies blue, and colors just beginning to appear as we made our way to lunch. Our director of reservations, Sue, called ahead and a table was set. We all enjoyed the BBQ sauces on a variety of meat including pulled chicken, pulled pork, and brisket. Bill was convinced that because he made a comment about not getting cream for his coffee, he was the last to get his lunch, but overall it was good service. The ride back took us along a busy, but colorful US64 through Cashiers, and the familiar 107/Wignington/130 route back home. It was truly a great day on two wheels. Steve
