Looks like a tough couple of weekends at the Gap... :( . Read on... www.tailofthedragon.com.
Sounds like the President may be in the area of Cade's Cove next weekend. Can you say traffic?
Yikes! Hope our weekend is unaffected.
Well we'll just have to ride somewhere else, now won't we! There are plenty of places to ride and not have to deal with the crap. See you guys next Wednesday.

During the week is the only time to be up there, I'm glad it's a week day/s event !!

I sure like the comment about the old guy on the duke. Makes me feel like there's hope.

I like that comment too.......
I ride my oldest sons CRF450R supermotard bike from time to time
(when he will let me, which seems to be only when he wants dad to write a check for something)
and while I have never ridden it off track, on a road like the dragon, it could be ridden so deep into a corner, it would be easy to see how it would blow by most sportbikes.....
a good rider on a duke, who knows the road, would be able to smoke pretty much any sportbike on that road.
As for the dragon.........(by the way, how hot does it have to get to melt Aluminum)........you have to be out of your mind to even think of riding it on a weekend..........between the fools on sport bikes who think they know how to ride, and the equally foolish touring on there full dress harley's that drag there engine cases on every corner, (and thats taking a wide slow line) it is just not a place to have fun on weekends................and thats not even counting the cars....who can be equally nuts and more of them drive way over there heads......................Glad you guys are going during the week..
