buser, that is your Duc? How do you ride it without drawing unwanted attention? Does it have some kind of cloaking device?

Tim (twr1776) and I did a little "scouting" in Brown County yesterday. It started out very foggy and misty, temps in the low 40s. Perfect KLR650 weather, because it keeps the dust down.And a bit of moisture really gives you great traction in the dirt.
We had breakfast at the Gatesville General Store. A bit later on, it cleared up just a bit:
Later on, things improved to mostly cloudy. Still, Monroe Reservoir in December is always a rather bleak place.

Sharp looking bikes there Notz.I used to have a '79 that looked similar to your Blk/Blue '78 and currently have the carbon copy of the other one.

I haven't ridden much since I moved to TN. Today's work schedule was clear so I played hooky and managed to put in 216 miles. It was pretty chilly. Probably never broke 45. Thank God for heated gear. Wish I'd had more of it today. In spite of getting cold, it was better than sitting in the office
There are a lot of things to see in Middle TN, and I saw some of them today.
Like this old mill
Its on the National Registry of Historic Places, for what that's worth. http://www.nps.gov/nr/feature/places/13000122.htm
Also rode on part of The Trail Of Tears
Tried to get my bike in the picture. Pulled right up under the sign. But the ground was so wet the side stand and center stand just sunk into it. Took the pic from the bike and then got out of there before whole bike sank!
Covered some of less interesting parts of The Natches Trace.
Lots of historic stuff just off The Trace like this old tobacco farm.
Way more stuff to see. Was just too cold to stop for any of it.
I'll have to go back later and ride the more fun parts and see more of the sights.
At some point I got too cold and wanted to head back to the stable, so I got off The Trace heading home. That was when I found the most amusing roads of the day. Great little 2 lane twisty roads with names like Leipers Creek, Mobley's Cut, and Johnson Hollow. They were just too short, but I need to scout out more like them.Current: 2014 BMW R1200GS, 2009 Triumph Tiger 1050, 1996 DR350SE

Good to hear from you.
Good that you got out (while still can... but lets not talk about what coming.)
Your pic of the mill would be a candidate for Marvin Scott's posting (OT, hobby)
Yah, Natchez Trace is interesting. The road, and if find the actual original trail in places, and can see where is still worn down into the ground... from people walking... a century and a half ago.
And sounds like you had quite an adventure after getting off the Trace. Do report more when you explore those.
