I practically live on the BRP during the season. Up there every chance I get. Any part you want to ride is great cap5369.

 

beautiful country. Gonna try to make it this year. I just need to win the lotto so I can go at will.

 

did it last 3 years, set the cruise on 40 and relax. I f you have the time shoot over to the Cherohola Skyway just West of the Dragon. More open vistas, we like it even better because you can see farther morre often.

 

I just got back Friday from the same ride. Dragon, Cherohala, BRP, and Skyline. Great experience but expect rain and fog to be a big factor. Also, we had an over exuberant ride planner who had us doing 2,500 miles in 7 days. Take your time and enjoy the ride. I'm glad I can say I rode the Dragon but I found it to be a silly way to spend half a day when you could otherwise be cruising some of the most beautiful roads in the world. Everyone who rides should plan to do the Cherohala, BRP, and Skyline trip once in their lives. Bring warm clothing, it never got above 50* in mid May.

 

Biltmore is on our itinerary...2 days in Asheville NC. I'm riding backwards this time though....South to North. Wondering what the other side of the rode on the BRP looks like. We rode this last year and the deer were all over the place..either in the rode or running across it. Even saw a black bear cub on the side of the rode..stopped and took pictures..but kept wondering where mama was

 

I was down there last weekend. It was excellent. I go down at least once every year. I think I may go down again at the end of June. I love it. Cherohala Skyway is the road to ride. It is incredible
