I'm not sure I'll have time this summer to ride the Dragon, so I'm tempted to use photoshop to replace the blue accents on Ferret's jacket with the lime green high vis accents on my Tourmaster and just imagine what that ride would have been like Rolleyes

Ferret... Did you ride it down from Ohio? If so, how long of a trip was that and how did the bike perform? I've ridden the roads you mentioned, and others, many times over the years. And you're right, The Cherahola Skyway is a nicer ride with the benefit of better scenery too! Great picture... makes me want to rethink which bike to bring back to Georgia... the HD or the CB??

Gheil yes I rode it. we took a convoluted way down, but direct ride back. Going down 10 hours, coming home 6-7 hours maybe? Bike preformed admirably. Weak link is the seat, but even then I was able to tolerate several 10 hour days in a row on it. Here are a couple ride reports with photos you may enjoy

Do the Dragon once and get your photo and sticker. Then go ride the Cherohala Skyway again and again. What an incredible piece of engineering that road is. It should be, it took forty years and $100,000,000 to build it!

Lol..I even skip the sticker...I'm not into stickers. If I was an ADV rider, I'd have the most boring saddlebags in the history of ADV riders. I don't even let car dealers put their stickers on my car, or their silly license plate frames with their name on it.
