Great pics! Can't wait to go back up in September and get some seat time in. By far some of the best riding in the country.

I am headed down the week of August 21st. We are doing the whole Skyline Drive/Blue Ridge Parkway, then the Tail, then hanging around to hit whatever else in the area is interesting like Clingmans Dome. Has anyone done Clingmans?

If you had run Hwy 28 south after it turns into a 4 lane down to Hwy 74, then 74 east a couple of miles to 28 south toward Franklin you would find a nice ride

We turned around at Franklin so we rode the nice little twisty section just north of Franklin. It was fun but we decided to head back up into the mountains after lunch in Franklin. It was getting kind of warm so figured the weather would be nicer up on the Blue Ridge Parkway which it was. Still think the Moonshiner 28 is worth doing just depending on how much time you have, it just moved down the list of things to do for me.
