Don't think that would go over well.

Accuweather.com yesterday said rain friday, sunny sat and sunday morning, and rain again sunday night...

It seems to be similar to last year.... we'll have to keep an eye on it I guess..

As long as it doesn't snow, I was looking at the tail of the dragon website the other day and they said it snowed this past Monday.

Well, the storms that just rolled through north Alabama left their mark... the 7 sustained pretty heavy hail damage. Still plan to go, so don't anyone make fun of my swiss cheese hood and karate-chop R1 wing.

Very sorry to hear that Don. Hopefully it's not too bad.

Unfortunately, it is... looks like they will have to replace the hood, maybe both front fenders and the R1 wing and probably new paint after the remainder of the hail dings are removed.
