Jerry, Ijust got back from Deals Gap..."Tail of the Dragon". What a ride. My Chapter went to Tenn for a few days. We went White Water Rafting and then hit the dragon. What a feeling....had a great time.

Jerry,

Rode Tail of the Dragon with Corkey1100 about a month ago. We had a great time! The ride was awesome - 12 miles, 130-something turns....it gets pretty hairy at some turns---my heart was seriously pumping!!! Ride safely, have a great time, its definitely worth the trip!


Hi Precious, haven't seen you in a while. Your'e just as lovely as ever. Got any plans for next week?

never been, maybe one day. did the trail of tears in 02, man what a big ride that was



I use my little SV650 for everything, touring, sportbike, trailbike, put motard tires on it in winter, but just scored a set of extra rims on ebay.

I rode over Tatham Gap (locally known as the gravel dragon) with my Sv back in May

saw a t-shirt for sale at the Tail gift shop. said something like, "Dragons Tail - 318 curves in 11 miles.... Florida 11 curves in 318 miles." I got one that says "318 curves.... 11 miles..... Deals Gap, the Sweetest ride in the Smokies." had the girl at the counter cut the sleeves off for me right there.

first trip to the dragon?

I been going there for 6 years, you'll get hooked, if not by the dragon, by every other road and senic vista, this past year, I discovered the dualsport riding in the area


I sold my 05 XR650L last week too, 1200 miles on it. Can only ride one at a time, loved it but found myself riding it out of guilt. The money will go into better things. I WILL have fun next week. My Mommy knitted a Blanky, lol
