I have been wanting to jump on my bike and head down to Virginia for the Horizons Unlimited Traveler’s Meet for a few years now, but while working I just never took the time. The meet is held in the latter part of April and that is typically not a good time to leave the northeast on a motorcycle trip, as it can be wet and cold. But this year, now that I am retired, I decided to give it a try since I no longer have time or vacation restraints.
While the weather was of course wet and cold, I still got to ride some amazing backroads all the way from my home in Massachusetts down to Virginia. I also got to spend three das meeting and learning from my fellow riders at the Virginia Horizons Unlimited Meet.

How’s the Triumph treating you? Didn’t hear much about it in the video, but I guess that is a good thing after your BMW experience. 😁
Good one to publish on Mother's Day, Sunshine. 😉

10:04 nice, that's section 4 of the MABDR.
It was an honor and privilege to have met you there at HUVA.
Hey there, I know this is a bit of a flash back….. What tires did you like best on your Vision? What kind of pressures did you use? My elite 4s are spent and I'm not sure what direction to go. Have concidered Bridgestone G701 & 702 the goldwing tires. The elites feel hard to me.
Ps that tiger riding looks like so much fun.
Good to hear you had a good trip.
