Annual Trip to Helen, GA 9 Years, 3 Months ago  
Made the trip this past weekend to Helen, GA and had a great time (see pic attached )

The weather was beautiful and not a cloud in sight. We rode all over the area Friday and Saturday. The two lane mountain roads aren't the difficult 180 or 270 degree turns you get in some areas of North Georgia/SE Tennessee. There are some that are kinda tight, but most you can get around at over 20MPH, even on a low, floorboard dragging low dual pipe Roadie.

The rides we took were even better (for me) than the after ride party action on the deck with the babes.

I was the only one who had an extra seat on my bike so I got to take a bike-less friend on the Saturday rides. She was a perfect passenger! She had owned and ridden a bike of her own in the past so she knew how the lean thing works. I told her that her only real job was to not fall off the back (no sissy bar on mine). She did her job well! The many "thank you's" for letting her climb aboard were nice to hear. I know she enjoyed the ride and the view of North Georgia leaves in the mountains.

Can't wait till next year, only, we need more Road Star bikes up there! Sounds like a road trip to me.

Very cool town to go to. Anybody that goes to Helen, stop by Betty's country store and get some handcut ribeye's. One of the steaks i've ever had, you won't be disappointed. Can't wait til next summer to go back.
