      I did the 2,000 mile trip last year. The Dragon was fun. We liked the Cherohala Skyway as well. This road is 1 mile high and many twists and turns. The scenery of the Smoky Mountains is breath taking.

        Yeah, I can't imagine running the pig trail and having to keep it below 30mph. That would take all of the fun out of it. Come to think of it, I don't think I got below 30 last time we were there.

          Ask Kat how long it takes going less than 30. She actually passed some Harleys going through there too!

              Hey Tod,

              Yeah, that's Brent on his LohoLohoLani. Since the Suches Rally is right in his back yard, he can ride his XS to the XS rally there! He put a fire under me, it was difficult to stay ahead of him, he knows how to ride quite well!
