    Anyone planning on being at the tail of the Dragon September 19 thru the 22nd?

    Me might be in the area during that time frame and even though we just rode it twice this past weekend, can always do it one more time.

    Get the Polish Eagle to take you to Benton's smoke house, they have the best bacon and other southern smoke house favorites. enjoy the dragon. Make it a round trip, ride the Dragon, then pick up the Cherohala Skyway, now thats a round trip.

    Personally I like the Skyway better, much higher speeds!

    No problem. If you do the Cherohala loop, you go right by the place.

    I was on the Dragon yesterday. Saw a few Spyders. I was on a red 2013 RTS. Tried to wave at my fellow Spyders, but some of the curves are just to steep to take my hand off the bar. Also rode the Foothills parkway. Nice sweeping curves and the temperature was awesome. 72 to 78. Sure hated to come back to this hot, humid Ga. climate.

    I was riding up there on Sunday. If you've never been before you surely will enjoy all the curves.

    Default Lunch at Deals Gap ?

    Sounds like several different groups shaping up to be in the area around the same dates.... Maybe we can do a casual meetup for burgers at Deals Gap around noon Saturday, 9/21 ? Now planning to make this Sunday, 9/22 mid-day due to schedule & weather changes.
