But do try and go during the week, the crowds will be much smaller.
I just emailed my buddy to suggest it. It is only 93 miles from where we will be. I think that he said that he wants to ride the "Tail" too?

Are you painting it black to get some more HP out of it?

Getting quite the stable there Ken, even without the Classic!


What kind of paint to be done? Some custom stuff maybe?

Personally I think The Dragon is over-rated (Tail of the Dragon is a little shop at Deals Gap), but if you are going to do it, definitely do it early in the morning on a weekday. Otherwise you will not enjoy it nearly as much.


I much prefer Moonshine Run and Cherahola Skyway for nice rides.
