Tonik

There is a way to do that, but I only followed @Pauly or @2talltim Let's see what they have to add.

Oh, and don't be sucked in at Bushy Mountain. It is an ATV area now and they have this fake moonshine and shitty BBQ. Hold out for Coal Smokehouse. And watch for the mud on that section of Devils Triangle. The ATV'ers have kind of taken that area over.

Ok, gonna leave the 10th up to you. It is 7 hours by slab to there from CBus. 11th Tonik's famous route. If you go clockwise you will be too early to eat at Cafe Rel. If you go counter clockwise you have to go across the Skyway in the morning and it may be damp/wet/foggy. https://goo.gl/maps/BPzHpxaD6anWqKvV6 12th Do this one clockwise so you get past Gatlinburg before the tourist clog the roads. In Maggie Valley is the Wheels Thru Time Museum and Carvers Maggie Valley Rest. for Brown Trout. This is also a second shot at an early dinner at Cafe Rel. https://goo.gl/maps/92QKZpFcTC8aR12aA 13th I would round trip the Devils Triangle area, gonna be hard to hit that on the way to Marion since it is totally in the wrong direction. Unless from Rocky top you slab it. And you will miss the really fun way to get there that I am going to suggest for the 14th. This is one way to Rocky Top and Coal SmokeHouse and the two sides of the triangle you want. Return you can slab through Knoxville (not far or bad) or you can come back the same way but cut off the two sides of the triangle and use 330 to short cut it. https://goo.gl/maps/pUceeUXoL5iMaMpb6 14th To Marion. Beginning is lame but not bad. Then you get Crabtree, 209, 212 and all that. Crabtee is paved, but I have not been on it in a few years. It could be rough. https://goo.gl/maps/VRrGprbfdvB7hMQj7 15 Straight up 16 until you run out of time to get home then you grab the slab. Marion to Beckly is the best part but it is all really good. https://goo.gl/maps/GCaUDW4S6Db7cHpJ6

Lol, more questions. Where is the Airbnb?

One more question. How many days total for this? Would you be open to leaving the evening before. So for example if you are doing Thur through Sunday would you be open to leaving Wed after work.

And what is your plan for getting down there?

@BlitzBefore I map this all out I need clarification. You want a 2 day run mapped that gets you from the Gap to home and hits as much of the above as you can?

They are really hard to get right now and are selling for full list plus. Mine is an 18, I could sell it now for more than I paid for it. It's crazy out there.

But for the record, those are awesome bikes, you did well. Very well.

When you ride mine you will change your mind. Ask Pauly, he road mine for an hour. Three days later I was driving his ass to Chicago to pick one up.

He screwed you man, he should have talked to you about a Goldwing.

Yep.

Wife and I came to the realization today that we eat too much for lunch. We were dragging ass all the way home.

Hard to say for sure, can't tell how deep it is. Looks kinda deep from here, so no.

And we are home.

No, they turned it into a shitty bbq and fake moonshine place. Then they built ATV trails all over from there to Rocky Top. Whole thing is a real shit show now. Shame, I loved 116.

So last night as we were leaving Coal Smokehouse I pointed to this really shitty Econolodge and said that's our hotel. Wife was not happy, and I don't balme her. Went one exit north to our real hotel....couple hours later @2talltim checks in on Facebook...at the Econolodge.

Parked for the night.

Yea, F' Chattanooga and their traffic.
