A buddy and I went out riding saturday afternoon...... beeeaaauuutiful day out, nice and cool, bright and sunny.... lots of fun

As with all my rides, it's nothing super fast.... I don't haul ass on the street, just a reasonable pace to have fun and get back home safely

NC 80, aka "Buck Creek" is always one of my favorites, headed north towards the Blue Ridge Parkway. We got stuck behind some cars towards the end but not for too long

Short ride on the Blue Ridge Parkway.... and as you can see, I caught a stinkin' bug right on the lens of my GoPro, lol

Then we rode up to the summit of Mt. Mitchell, which is the highest peak on this side of the Mississippi @ 6,684 ft
