    ..on Saturday. The Route Master GPS-Gary showed me some good roads by Charleston. Of course he was warm and cozy on that Goldwing he rides with all that electric gear. It wasn't to cold, maybe a little in the morning.

    We saw a guy on a URAL but we didn't stop. We should have.

    We stopped at the KTM shop in Charleston. I think Gary is eyeballing some orange bikes for 2012?

    The attached pic is nice little dirt road, real dirt, not even gravel, with a small creek and a nice rutted uphill. I was sure thinking of William as I was going up. We all know how he loves mud after all.

    I can't say I'm familiar w/ the area, but there about have to be some ADV-good roads down there since it's next to the river.
