Deals Gap 2022 Check-In

[BlueR32]

My brother & I are planning to swing by Deals Gap on Saturday May 21st. I know its the tail end of the event. Will there still be some activity or will most of you be headed home?

[Kawtriplefreak]

There will still be plenty of people there. Most of us stay until Sunday morning.

Y'all know I'll be around. 

But hell, I'm just now seeing this about the Happy Valley side of the parkway!?

Surely us locals can go up Montvale under the parkway and down through Happy Valley, right?

That's my plan. Coming from Clinton, I'd really rather not ride the RD400c on Pellissippi. Will probably trailer it to the big lot just as 129 starts to climb up from the lake and ride to DG from there.

Anyone going to be staying at Fontana Motorcycle Resort?  That's where I'm stationed.  Listen for the yellow R5.

also getting my stuff ready for Sunday drive up. Took the RD out for a spin and noticed a high idle.
Strange.
went home and thought well maybe I will just adjust it down a little. When I moved it to get the screwdriver in, NICE. Cracked manifold.
Friday noon before the weekend.
FUC....
Ducati down, RD down.
I called EC, and well well, guess who answered the phone. He has a set and can send overnight.
just pending his shipping guy to show up and pay for the overnight shipping.
So maybe just got away with this one
1. did not seize it
2. may still be able to ride this coming week

I might cruise through early in the week but, in light of my Buffalo still not being complete, I'll be in my Miata.

[Evans Ward]

Nice turnout this early here at DG!

[Striker1423]

Cool!

[TNWillie]

VERY nice turnout for being so early in the week. The weather sure is cooperating.
Keep those pictures coming. I know I'm not the only one living vicariously through them. ;)
