I was busy earlier and now, I AIN~T GONNA watch Hollywood awards nite on TV!!!
Not wanting to leave you with such a short answer/comment
July 2013 was our trip to the area...
Four fellas headed north from sw GA, We rode 4 days through many of those attractions...
But don`tchyaknow there are many roads in the GA, SC, NC & TN mountains I enjoy
During our 4 days, the Dragon & Cherohola Parkway was included, along with Devils Triangle, Blue Ridge Parkway, Moonshiner 28, War woman(?)
& ALMOST the "Diamondback"...
Going up, we got on Moonshiner 28 and rode all of it from the state line to Deals Gap, with the last 10 Miles on rain cleaned road
The guys I was with are beer drinkers, I opted to ride, whilst they "recouped" from the long hard ride...
I rode the Dragon 9 times each way on our overnight stay at Deals Gap...
I picked up a slow leak in the front tire, and had to monitor it throughout the trip from the first day...
Then we took off for Devils Triangle in the rain and afterward, made it to Tellico Plains to hook up with Bulldog, a member here...
We started with Cherohola Parkway for our second day of riding in the area...
We made it to the Blue ridge Parkway and rode it from Cherokee to Black Mountain, Where the BRP was closed for repair of a rockslide...
We were headed to the "Diamondback" but the beer drinking was more important so we stayed at Black Mountain...
Rain kept the roads clean for us, and we did get caught in it occasionally...
The rest of the story is in another thread on our trip to Deals Gap...
Yes, I`ll be back, (to the mountains)
