BiggO Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 I just got back from a great trip to The Tail of the Dragon and Cherohala Skyway. Those are some awesome roads, plus a lot bikes to see. I took a bunch of pictures. I'll post some as soon as I get them loaded to photobook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buildit Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 For those wanting to know what the Dargon is like, I have a ride report from last year in my u-tube account with a full length video from the Dragon resort to the resivior on the other end. There are also some video of roads north of Knoxville that are fun and less traveled like 25W and the area around Powers Dam. Point is don't be afraid to explore the area.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27XtkD5OgUY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BiggO Posted June 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 I read a story about an accident last July at the Dragon, in which the biker did this exact same thing. A Honda Accord was coming from the other direction. When they hit, the biker's arm was severed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
