Default A match for the Dragon

NC Hwy 80, is a match for the Dragon as is NC 197. I rode both today and the round trip was 265 miles. Beautiful day and I was gone about 8 hours.

Absolutely incredible! That first pic reminds me of the Smokies. Rented a Road King Classic in Maryville, Tn last year. I'll never forget it. Michigan has some nice roads, but not like yours.

Nice pics ******! Now where are the one's with you and Matt and some bikes? Looks like you had good riding weather too! Did you guys do it all in one day? That's a pile of miles. Must've been an all-dayer

Duh, guess you wrote it was one day 265 miles isn't bad at all.

Rode it all alone Bro. Matt is working so the other guys who do not have wives and family in the Jacksonville area can have first block leave. He will be here in SC hopefully on his Moms Birthday the 19th. Thjis next Friday!
Hush it is the Smokies! All around Marion and Asheville NC I rode 5 miles of gravel road to get to some of this scenery!
