    The glory of the Pik-n-Pig is their smoked chicken. Sure, their que is good, but their chicken is made of awesome. Sadly, I had been eating there for years before I ever tried the chicken. All that time wasted....

    Let me know when you want to go try the Q at Pik-N-Pig. I'll ride down there also. The smoked BBQ brisket is well worth trying also.

    Yes I have had the BBQ at the Skylight Inn. It is easily in anyone's top 10 in NC. We used to have a hunting lease down on the river off of Hwy 11. I'd go back just for the Q if there wasn't so much boring asphalt between my house and there.

    Nope, the Husky with nothing. I did swap the 'stitch out for the winter suit today, and wore my heated gear underneath.

    I normally depart the house around 0430, but I slept in today. I hit the road seconds after this photo was taken. The sandhills rarely see cold like this.

    Yeah, but you guys have this weird phenomenon in the Summer when it actually gets too hot to ride.

    It's a matador. An early version of the cruise missile. Capable of carrying a nuclear warhead.

    It is not an aircraft. It is a missile. That is a Matador, one of the first cruise missiles ever developed.
