Devil's Triangle

On July 25, 26, and 27 I attended the Devil’s Triangle Motorcycle Rally at Grey Wolf Campground on Hwy. 116 in Anderson County, TN. There were some great food vendors on hand, as well as vendors selling leathers and jewelry. A mini chopper was given away, and the raffle tickets were a mere one dollar. Live music was provided by two bands, Burden and Steam Shovel, and since I am a former member of Steam Shovel, I was invited to sing a few songs with them. Steam Shovel’s newest member, Johnny Cool, did a great job on lead vocals and guitar, and even performed a couple of solo acoustic sets. “Air Angus” did a tribute to AC/DC, playing “air guitar” in full costume on a stage that included a light show and fog machine. At night campfires dotted the landscape, and the owner (Odie) even provided a few fireworks. On Saturday there was a bike show, and four trophies were awarded.

The only drawbacks were the rain that canceled the bike rodeo, and the very small turnout. I fear Odie may have lost his shirt on this one.

The Devil’s Triangle is a fantastic ride with great scenery and many curves and switchbacks. The ride alone is worth the trip to Grey Wolf. The next rally will be a 4-wheeler event on September 26, 27 & 28. The next Devil’s Triangle Motorcycle Rally will be October 24, 25 & 25. I plan to be there, and I hope you will be too.

The “People’s Choice” trophy went to this beautiful Harley.

At 11:30pm on July 3 we began lining up for what is billed as America’s earliest 4th of July parade. My wife and I joined other Patriot Guard Riders who turned out with over 20 motorcycles for this midnight tradition in Gatlinburg TN. We were honored to ride behind the five floats that represented the four branches of our armed forces and the Gold Star Moms. It was a thrill to be part of this great celebration of freedom.
