Re: tail of the dragon
If you get the chance ride Wolf Pen Gap Road near Suches, Georgia . the switch backs are snakier than those on the Dragon and a real challenge on a touring bike.

Re: tail of the dragon
In my thoughts ....it is never too soon to get some kind of plans together for future rides ! next June if anyone else would like to go to the area of the tail of the dragon after the rally ends ...(as in the very next day) tell me your thoughts ! as long as we are that close ......lets GO ! the more the merrier !
