Recommended Posts

Recently had a chance to ride my motorcycle for the first time thru some new areas. This years 1 day ride include Montgomery, AL, Cherhola Skyway TN, Tail of the Dragon TN/NC, Bank of America Stadium (Charlotte), Everbank Field in Jacksonville. 

After leaving Montgomery at 2:36 in the morning, seeing some beautiful scenery in TN finally made to Charlotte around 6:30 PM. Was hoping to contact somebody on the forum so I/or the bike could be in the picture but I was running behind schedule.Total miles Day 1 1035 miles.

Awesome pics!  A close, long time family friend, Don Tilley, ended up passing away from a motorcycle accident on mountain roads thanks to gravel.  It's not always the speed and curves that get you.  

A guy I work with knew him really well.  His wife got hurt pretty badly to, from what I understand.  Couldn't even go to his funeral.  Very sad story.  Seems like the Tilley HD shop is still going strong.

On two wheels gravel's almost as bad as an oil slick. Only time I ever laid a bike down.

Robinette was in ICU for a long time, and will have a tough life going forward.

Awesome pics and looks like you had a great and safe ride. Nothing better. I haven't been able to get on mine in about 3 years because of back and neck issues. Finally getting a little better and hoping to be able to go on a ride in a few weeks.

I've been to BoA twice now, but never taken the tour, nor had a chance to look too closely at the Panthers' statues.  What are the names inscribed on the base of the statues?  Player rosters?

    • Well, they're both in the same league (if you will). During preseason, Fitz went 3/3 & Sauls went 5/6, but of course Sauls was 4/4 last night (including one 50+). Both were Lou Groza Award finalists. I believe Fitz made two 55+ yarders last season, while Sauls led the nation with three. Fitz was 13/13 (💯) while Sauls was 21/24 (87.5). Fitz was a 3rd-Team AP All-American, while Sauls was a PFF All-American.  Career-wise, Fitz was 58/74 (78.4), while Sauls was 52/64 (81.3). I wish that I could see the attempts and knew the depth of yardage. I wish that we could compare practice kicks during their training camps, but we can't. Maybe someone with a PFF/CFF account can give that Basically it's just a matter of belief I guess. Seeing dude knock down four FGs and go perfect during a pressure-filled game for him is damned impressive if you ask me. I don't believe that Fitzgerald could do that.  That being said, I'd have to know more. I will say that it may be worth mentioning that we seem to like PFF this year and Sauls being a PFF All-American may be notable. Now that being said, the Panthers may not be even considering Sauls.
    • Ive said it 1000x times on here.  Our 2025 season will be dictated by the first 4 games.  poo the bed there and lose all confidence and momentum, we win 5 games maybe.  Go 2-2, 3-1 we got a look at 7/8 wins
    • I basically made almost the exact predictions on a phone call with a buddy about 3 weeks ago. I really do expect Evero gone before the seasons end, Young to just not able to get over the hump enough and DC to head into next season on a VERY hot seat.
