I attended. The weather was beautiful Mon-Fri. Heavy rain was forecasted for Sat and Sun so most folks left Sat morning. There was a serious injury to Shane, Retro3, on the Kawi board. He high sided in the gap and broke his leg and ankle. He required surgery and spent a couple nights in the hospital in Knoxville. Below is a pic of the bikes (RZ and CB750) I brought to the meet:

Also several Suzukis showed below are pics of two:

I also saw a nice 380 and two GT750s. Not as many Suzukis as in past years.

Thanks for the info Frank, I see the 750 has new paint. Sorry to hear about Shane, I hope he doesn't stay laid up for long. Do you know what he was riding when the crash took place.

Yes the CB has new paint. This bike attracted more attention than any other bike I have ever brought to the gap. Seems like every Harley rider started with a CB750 or their father/uncle had one.
Shane was riding a freshly restored 73 H1.
Also an update on Shane. He sustained a broken tibia, fibula, and shattered ankle. Evans was directly behind him on this run and horribly witnessed the entire crash while on his RZ. Gear did it's job though. Shane's helmet was badly scraped but he did not have any head injuries.

The new paint has definately has transformed the 750s appearance, looking sharp for sure. Shanes accident sounds like he sustained some serious damage, especially the shattered ankle.
Thanks for the latest update.

Here is a link to more picture links. It was a great time, as usual. Shane will heal, he is a tough guy.
