            Baatfam gets my vote this week.

            I've riden that road 10 times in both directions all before 9:00am today!
            I can imagine going into the hairpin uphill in second gear then cranking it out of the turn! (torque baby, that's where it's all at)
            Then hard on the brakes to set up for the next turn...
            I didn't get a lot of work done today, to much daydreaming! Haha

                  Voting for Bob (Battfam) , that road looks familiar, Devil's Triangle?
                  sigpic2002 KLR650 Ugly but fun!
                  2001 KLR650 too pretty to get dirty

                  Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

                    Looks like we are tied at 3 votes each between Baatfam and Dorkburger.
                    who would like to break the tie?

                        (Assuming that is reference to mine), that effect is from the clear skys and the morning sun being pretty much directly behind me (not post processing manipulation), and me arranging things to avoid seeing too much of the bike's and my shadow. .

                        .

                        And there is a tie breaker for Mr Bob Baatfam.
                        Wow, Bob, that is local to you. At first I though I recognised it as being on TOD (across from Smokey Mtn Natl Park southern seasonal entrance), but on further looking I see its not.

                            To answer both you and Dave, that is just a small section of TN61, not far from my home.
                            TN61 and TN144 are part of small loop I like to run when on a short ride.

                            Give me a few moments, and I'll be back with the theme....

                              With all the grey days lately, I have really been thinking about spring coming....A lot.
                              And that's about 6 weeks away, in my part of the world. The Dogwoods and Redbud trees will be blooming.

                              So our theme of the week is: Think Spring
