this is where we stayed. I love the fact that everyroom has its own garage

That's what we need in Vegas for the Ride!!!

Those are some nice looking cabins to stay in Airman has booked... Dragon would be cool for sure.

Yeah havin the garages would be nice. With the size of our group (11 cruisers and me) it was just a whole lot cheaper to stay where we are. We're all just gonna take our covers and hope the rain we're gettin now is gone then.

I'm leaving Monday to go up there. Staying for a week in N. Ga.

Make sure you check out other roads beside The Dragon. I like it, but there are roads I like more.

After you come down The Dragon and go to the store to get the t-shirt and the dragon stickers, head on down 129 to Joyce Kilmer. Follow that to the Cherohala Skyway. Head to Tellico Plains. It's about 35 miles of great road. It can get cold. Highest elevation is about 5400 feet. When you get to Tellico Plains, hang a left on 68. That is my favorite road. You can haul *** on it. No driveways or side streets or peple pulling out of parking lots.

When you get to McCaysville, turn around and go back up. Turn right back on the Skyway and then left on 360. That comes out on 411 and you head back to Sevierville from there.

It rained monday for about 200 of the 470 miles down. Rained tues so i did college homework and got it all done for the week. Rained wed we went and rode the dragon anyway. Was perfect tues so we went back and made a loop around I 28 and back through the dragon. Me and one buddy rode fri while the other guys went to dolly wood with their wives. Me and him went on the chereolla skyway which i think is almost as fun as the dragon since it's the long sweeping turns you can take at 90mph. rode back home sat hit a few sprinkles and a lot of fog around bristol. I was upset when i found out the trip meter on our bikes resets at 1000 miles. I was gonna take a picture and post for yall. I ended up riding 1,547 miles in 5 days of riding. Can't wait for killboy to post their pics.
