Google Deals Gap, Helen, Ga, Smokey Mountain Natl Park, Maggie Valley, Blue Ridge Pkwy. Sandstone WV, New River Gorge. Gatlinburg,TN. all good rides. ck out web site www.touringdepot.com good stuff there to read.

Hey bigdaddy I did that trip 2 summers ago. Went from Vegas to Harrisburg PA. Unfortunately, I went in early June and ended up riding mostly in the rain. I couldn't do the Dragon due to fog and icy patches. But had a great time and enjoyed any way. Met a lot of nice people along the way also. Do check the weather though, had to cancel many side trips. Have a great ride.
