Lucky lucky lucky!! Let us know how the leo are up there. Last I read the Tennessee side was pretty heavily patrolled.

was hoping to go the end of july but since i'm switching jobs it won't look good for me to take a few vacation days my first month or work.

a few 350Z/GT-R/Skyline guys i know went up there recently and came back with a couple tickets. keep your eyes peeled for those chargers!

just let them know in advance... everyone takes vacations before starting the new job... I thought it was a given... LOL

I've heard about lots of people getting busted on the Tennessee side - Be careful!

Will do. You have to let me know when you all ride. I usaully have fridays off and ride then wife works Thursday thru Saturday nights so its kind of hard to ride on those nights. But you never know.

Thanks we did about 12hrs of riding each day. We both were hurting on the way home. It would be a great group ride.

RSIXXER · #17 07-14-2010, 06:32 PM

we keep trying, but all dies out in the end... damned economy and all... I was the only one of us that made it to the mountains in our planned April trip, but I still had a blast.

CoolJoker197 · #18 07-14-2010, 10:38 PM

once i actually get some vacation time built up it's gonna happen.....

I'm glad they moved the rock at Bridal Falls. Did you go to the gap? They didn't open it until maybe the 8th or 9th of July. We avoided it and ran the Cherohala and 68 down to N. Ga. where we ran 60.

We saw ZERO police and had some great riding.

Yeah we rode the dragon. It was nice because there was no truck traffic. since it was still blocked off on the other side.

28 is still an awesome road --- from Fontana all the way to S. Carolina.
