NC215 & the BRP between NC215 & Soco Gap.  This is my "local" stretch of BRP.  Whole ride was only about 70 miles, but I took lots of pictures.  I am surrounded by awesome scenery.

On the BRP:





















Reached the highest point the road on the BRP reaches!


Watch for the spiral turns!




Waterrock Knob, just above my tankbag you can see the BRP I was on as I came up the mountain.


Similar shot, BRP just to the right of my headlight.

Wow great roads to bad you're in such a dangerous area (judging by the bullet holes on your tank). Plus you got the fastest color monster  [thumbsup].

the_Journeyman

Thanks for the comments folks!  I do have great roads and try to enjoy them as much as possible!

IZ - I'm 20 minutes from the southern-most part (where the pics are from) of the parkway, anytime you're passing through I'll try to catch up with you, even if it's just for a few miles!

DucDodgers - The dents from the previous owners lowside was just calling for the bullet hole stickers.  I've thought about adding a few other small "bomber" type accents.  Yellow is awesome.

Also, in the pic of the headlamp close-up, are you doing Jazz Hands?

awesome pics!  A few of those spots are familiar to me.  Been too long since I last rode out there though.  Will have to go again this year... soon!
