Default Smokies Road Trip

A great trip to the TN/NC/GA mountains. Road lots of crooked roads and great fellowship with friends. Our Road Captain put together some awesome rides. We visited Smokey Mountain HD, my favorite dealership. Rode Cherohala Skyway, Foothills Parkway, Little River Road, 441, The Dragon 3x, Wayah Road 2x, Moonshine 28 3x and numerous others. Great time. We did run into a little color in places. Great trip.

Isn’t Topoco lodge great? I stopped there a couple weeks ago after a long day riding, had a great burger and beer while sitting on that deck next to the river

You can share those routes easily. If he made them he will know how to save it. Just let us know the trip name and location or share the link. Thanks. I’d like to see it if possible. Mike
