Damm shame, we've been going for the last two years and I was finally planning on getting up the courage to ride the bike down this time.

Every time I drive through the gorge I think "if only I was on my bike". Such awesome roads down that way.

Is Boyd's the Honda shop in NP? If so, met some nice people there last time I was down, very friendly and helpful.

was hoping to finish the XT500 street tracker in time and ride it down.
fuck.
