Friday morning - superb sunny weather, and after we had some breakfast at days inn, fueled the bikes had to stop at 'Hillbilly Harley Davidson' in Gatlinburg for a Shirt... The ride across the Great Smokey Mountains was great into Cherokee, and we stopped at Nantahala Outdoor Center on 19W for a coffee, it started to shower...
Luckily the shower stopped after 5 minutes and we continued, but now we got into a real rainstorm and had to stop at a rafting center and hide. We smoked a 'Anit-Rain-Cigar", some other bikers pulled in for a nice chat and after 20 minutes the rain had stopped and the sun was shining again... off we got to 129N, which is a fantastic ride until you hit "Deals Gap". Lots of bikes, trikes, scooters and Cars gather and there is a constant rush onto THE DRAGON....
We took off around 3pm and run the Dragon, it started to rain... At the north end of the Dragon is a large parking lot, we stopped and the rain as well...
So we were riding thenDragon again towards South and DealsGap. Lots of really bad riders made us stop and wait so we could ride with fun... And it was. Fueled the bikes at DealsGap, and rode the Dragon again - I can say this is really fantastic... And an experience I wanted always to make - thanks Rich !
Riding along 129N there is a nice BBQ were we had a sandwich and the continued the 129N, hit I-74N and were riding into London... Another Steak, more Sam Adams... And another 300miles of pure fun !
