Default Rode the Dragon

I met a group in Jasper,Ga. Sat. morning rode the Dragon with a few stops along the way. I enjoyed it. Man were there a lot of Harleys at the store probably 9 out of 10. I was expecting more sport bikes. All together I enjoyed it rode 425 mile altogether.

I have done it solo, dragging pegs, solo a bit more relaxed, with my friends daughter and with my wife on the back...I enjoyed it also...

Rode it in on a rental Duce out of Atlanta a few years back. Great ride and one off the bucket list. There are better rides out there IMO but its one you have to do because of its iconic status.

Default The Dragon

I rode down from Minnesota a few years back on a Road King. The Dragon was great but like they say there are a lot of great motorcycle roads all around NE GA. I now live in Cleveland, GA and enjoy whatever direction strikes my fancy. Still grinding my Heritage floorboards to fit!

We took a one week trip to Nashville and the Dragon last year. Noticeably harder to ride the Dragon 2 up and fully loaded.
Worst curves were actually the the 2 last ones on the Hell Bender coming into Fontana Village. 180 degree hairpin into a very steep incline.
