What a great trip this turned out to be, but started a week later due to torrential downpours. Chief and Steve set out from Maryland and I met them just outside of Richmond, VA. We ventured through mountains, pastures, river valleys and flat lands through seven states. Only mechanical mixup was a slight oil leak on my rebuilt cams but nothing like a bit of roadside surgery with gasket sealer to get that fixed. Met some great folks and saw places in the country I never thought I would see and cannot wait to venture back. Do yourself a favor and get out and see what a great country we live in. Plus, the folks in many of the places we traveled could sure as hell use some tourism dollars to help them out, hard times in the hollers for sure.
