- The road home was long but we took the scenic route through I-40 in Tennessee. The mountains are breathtaking on a motorcycle! @harleydavidson @saddlemenusa @khrome_werks

Beautiful scenery
Yeah man. I love that part of the trip. In the cool weather it’s even nicer.
6:49 That's where I live and LOVE it for riding.
Man you are so lucky! That is a great riding area. Beautiful long stretches of twisty spacious roads. ✌🏼🙌🏼
Glad you had a safe ride back!
Thanks Rafael! Great experience. I don’t know if I would do it that rushed again. Thanks for watching! ✌🏼
Brother loved the content throwing down miles, your bike sounded outstanding! I’ll tell you, there’s some places out there they just can’t maintain roads. Recently rolled across I-70 in Colorado, and enjoyed some of the worst, beaten up, fractured highway I ever traveled on. They didn’t just get that way overnight or even in the last year or two.
I don’t understand how infrastructure in this country is not a priority right now. There are a lot of bad roads, bridges etc. they’re rough for cages. So much worse for motorcycles. Thanks for watching my brother. Be safe out there. ✌🏼🙏🏼
@@coffeehogs Some states get it, and they can’t blame weather. Have rolled all over MT, UT, WY, SD where they get brutal weather, and for the most part, most their roads are top notch and/or they are actively out fixing and maintaining them. MN, LA, CO, NM, to name a few are a sleep at the wheel. Just watching other UA-camrs on the trail, you get feedback where infrastructure is ripped to shreds, and even through their cities and smaller towns. Another reason to justify upgrading our suspension and seat. 😂🇺🇸
@DeBa1226 true that, LOL. I did recently upgrade. That ditch I took would’ve for sure messed up a stock suspension and definitely caused real damage.
@@coffeehogs There used to be a scenic highway I used to ride in the mountains often on an old Softail years ago. Every single time for years I tried to anticipate this one spot on a sweeping curve, I looked for it, even got up on my fwd controls a bit, because no matter how hard I looked, or how slow I backed off to, I absolutely could not see the buckle or a ridge in the surface that felt like it compressed every vertebrae in my spine, every single time; I never missed it! I nearly pulled off the road the last time I hit it, to walk back and see what the heck it was. It was a chiropractors dream, and I could never miss it and always thought, man I can’t be the only unlucky dude that gets tired of hitting what you can’t see. 😂
@DeBa1226 🤣🤣 that’s funny. It’s hard to see them on the bike for whatever reason. That training kicks in and you stand up at least. Avoid that chiropractor at all costs!
I-95 turns to crap once you hit South Carolina. It may take me an extra 10 hours but when I go to Maine I use 75 to 85\26\81\84\90\295\95. Looked like a fun ride.
That’s a fact! I’m not very familiar with the backroads in that area but I would’ve preferred to avoid that road. It’s in such bad conditions. Nevertheless, we had a great time. Thanks so much for watching! 🙏🏼✌🏼
Good to finally meet at TTRTTH. How did you like riding through the gorge? That’s the way I go to Biketoberfest.
It’s always such a good feeling meeting with our community of bikers out there. Such a vast yet small world with one thing in common. The love for everything bikes!
That’s the most beautiful ride down that gorge. Even in the rain, it is so peaceful and awe inspiring. I love TN. It calls me. We may have touched on this when we talked. Thanks for watching! ✌🏼🙏🏼
@@coffeehogsWe did talk about it.
That would piss me off hitting that ditch
I’m sure drivers in cages are not happy with that either. Thing is, there were several smaller ditches in that stretch of road. The roads leading to bridges were so uneven also. Very uncomfortable to ride through that whole area. Makes you picker up. And I don’t mean your lips 😂
Thanks for watching! ✌🏼🙏🏼
Awesome video brother! I live in Michigan and ride down to Tennessee at least once a year. Smokey Mountain Harley Davidson, the riders destination. I highly recommend the Milwaukee Leather deluxe rain gear, paired with Nelson Rigg rain boots. I have them and never fret the rain. No sense in getting wet when you don't have to!!
Sean thanks my brother. I frequent Smokey Mountain HD as well. Love that area of Tennessee. I agree with you. I have rain gear and waterproof boots. However, in this heat, it’s more uncomfortable at times than just riding through it and cooling off. Space is another thing. My son’s Street Bob can’t carry much so I had to take his stuff with me. It’s a little tricky going on long trips with very little room. Thanks for watching brother! ✌🏼🙏🏼
I bypass 26 and 95 at Columbia and take 321 to 301 to Jacksonville . Much less traffic and more enjoyable ride.
I’ve never tried that route. I will definitely look into it next time. Thanks for letting me know! ✌🏼🙏🏼
I rode my 1979 Yamaha XS1100 all the way down highway 441. The bike was not feeling right and when I got home I found out that the steering bearing had fractured into many pieces.
Dang brother! I’ll remember that. No 441 for me! Ride safe my brother!✌🏼
Riding the interstate at night is extremely dangerous. Animals and debris are obstacles. A biker hit a recap at night and was killed on 95.
Although it’s not in my video, we did stay in Titusville that night because it got too late and we were just too tired. And you’re right, I-95 is a mess at night. But I really have to try that route one time.
Love riding through the mountains down to Daytona......stay safe
Jeff, coming down from the North to Daytona is the best. Going up, not so much. 😂
Thanks for watching! ✌🏼
Bro, I made it there with Kelly B. We left that morning (Sunday) at 3 am and hit that rain at 530 in Nashville. Great video...stay right side up.
Chris I saw Kelly’s video. 3:00 am is a great time. You don’t have to deal with the heat for much time. Unfortunately, that dreaded rain got us no matter where you were going from, LOL.
Looks like it was a long trip home but so cool that you were able to do that trip with your son. It was neat to see you go by Pooler, you had just passed my parents exit. We will ride up that way one of these days and St Augustine is on our list for sure. I’m glad I stumbled upon your channel. 👍
It was a long trip home but you’re right. We had such a good time. We spent some quality time up there. I’ll be visiting St Augustine soon to make a video up there. Thanks so much for watching! ✌🏼🙏🏼
Nice long ride. Awesome video. Just subscribed.
This was a great test for that new Screaming Eagle 128 I just recently had put in. It performed very well. Thank you for the kind words and the sub! I truly appreciate it.
That ditch was rough brother, thanks for the trip😎… new sub
Thanks for the sub Jim! Man, I got lucky with that one. It was pretty deep. Gotta stay out of that right lane. It’s the worst. Thank you for watching my brother! Ride safe. ✌🏼
That was a crater in the road!! That is ridiculous! Hate I didn't get to meet yall in Knoxville. Subscribed.
I was actually surprised how soft it looked on camera. Great stabilization. 😂
I wasn’t able to be there day one. Hopefully next year I make it out there with more time and we meet out there. Thanks so much for the sub. I subbed right back. ✌🏼🙏🏼
@@coffeehogs Thank you, I appreciate that! 👍
Man when you hit that ditch I thought you broke something. Thank God nothing happened. Great ride home
It sounded a lot worse on the bike. The mic didn’t pick that up good. That ditch was at least eight inches or more. Only reason I got on that left lane is because we were about to exit for some gas. That whole section of 95 is awful man. I know now to stay on the left lane as long as possible. Crazy! Thanks for the watch my brother! ✌🏼
Another great video. I enjoyed every minute of it. Glad no damage from the bad roads.
Thanks Stuart! It was definitely a scare. Hopefully nothing pops up later on the bike because of that hit.
Glad you made it home safe brother, was a great weekend!
Thank you my brother. What a great ride with great people! ✌🏼
Wow, road hazzards sux, not bad enough got to watch out for idiot drivers road hazzards as well, head on a swivel
Gary, the drivers are a dime a dozen. You get used to staying away from them as best possible. Thanks for watching! ✌🏼🙏🏼
