Deals Gap Trip

Recommended Posts

I'm back. What a trip! I did the Dragon several times, Hellbender once and the Cherahola once. I also ran the Blueridge Parkway from Boone, NC to Lexington, VA.

To everyone going in August. The Dragon is simply amazing. A word or two of caution. I saw one rider down on Wednesday night when I ran it and another rider was killed on Hellbender on Thursday not 5 minutes after I went down it. These are serious roads that demand full attention.

All in all a trip well worth doing. I plan on returning next year for more fun.

Dave - Hellbender is also known as the River Road. It is Rt 28. From the Deal's Gap Motorcycle Resort you can take Rt 129 to Robbinsville or if you look to the left you will see RT 28. It is well worth the time. It will take you around 40 minutes or so to get back to the Resort if you run it.
