Once again Horizons Unlimited held their annual Traveler's Meeting at the Iron Horse Motorcycle Resort in Stecoah, NC. Horizons Unlimited is a group of like minded individuals that share a love for long distance motorcycle touring. We get together once or twice a year (there is another meeting on the east coast near Appomattox, VA in the spring) and discuss all thing motorcycle. Most presentations at the meeting relate directly to a trip but some teach an aspect related to travel. This year I was most interested in the presentations on photography. We had a professional photographer show us photographic techniques including Smartphone photography and related apps. Hopefully this will improve my photography for future postings!

Of course, I had to first ride to get to Stecoah. Stecoah is about 80 mile from my home. I could ride there in about and hour and a half, but why should I? I live in a beautiful area for riding and decided to take the Blue Ridge Parkway. The BRP can be beautiful this time of year.

At the time I was not intending on continuing this blog, but several folks asked me to pick it up again. I am now retired and have more time to give to this blog. It does kind of seem funny to start or resume a blog about motorcycle travel in October. Oh well, so be it.
Soon I will be posting about the ADV Old School Fall rally held in Tellico Plains, TN. Stay tuned!
