Day 1 (July 22, 2006)

Ludington, MI to Georgetown, KY

Started at 8:40 a.m. ended at 6:30 p.m.

Total miles = 548

In Brighton, Michigan I had to stop at the new Brighton Harley-Davidson dealer because my clutch was sticking. They were having a big open house event so there were hundreds of motorcycles there. One of the mechanics brought some tools out to my bike and adjusted the clutch cable. They didn’t charge me a dime. They wished me well on my trip and told me to be sure to check out the Tail of the Dragon. My hat’s off to their crew. Where else can you get free mechanical help and a trip tip?
