The Blog of Slab
I never made it! It was a beautiful sunny day and I was all set to ride the three and a half hours up the slab to Pine Mountain, Georgia, and I would have loved some BBQ, but I talked myself out of it. Something I would not have done just a few years ago.…
Last week I solved the rat’s nest issue, replaced the air filter and changed the engine oil in Lil Chubb since it was about time. I got up today and donned my kevlar lined riding jeans determined to go for a ride today. I felt like I needed to see how she was running after…

I decided since the best riding months were coming up with various biking gettogethers and rallies planned that it would behoove me to keep…
Once again I attempt to embark on the Grand Tour of Georgia. Last year I barely got started in August and I got sick with what I still believe was Covid19. I recovered handsomely but never got back on the road to complete the tour. This year I am at it again, and the theme…
