2009 FZ6RC Dragons Tail Meet

[Jim Karam]

Here is a nice all day route with stops to eat, and photo ops built in.

Zoom down and check the twisties.

Hopefully it will come up.

It heads to a gas station first thing within 6 miles of start. Refuel in Tellico plains before the skyway ride home so all bikes are full of fuel -50 miles on return to the house for dinner. Lunch at the dragons tail on 129 after riding the hell bender in. A cut off and return home or stay on the dragon split point is there as well.

from:Luciannda' Dee Dr to:NC-143/Sweetwater Rd to:Fontana Rd/NC-28 to:US-129 to:TN-115/US-129 to:TN-72 to:Bakers Creek Rd/TN-72 to:TN-33/TN-411 to:TN-68 to:35.318487,-83.984127 to:NC-1127/NC-143/Santeetlah Rd - Google Maps

You can make this loop even more interesting by using route 360 as a cutoff for the US411 freeway. See http://www.tailofthedragon.com/maps/dragonloop.gif. You can also count me in, although I'll be staying at Fontana again for my wife's benefit.

[wrightme43]

This was such a a great trip last year, I am already looking forward to going again!

Mikebike will be coming up from Florida but he will probley have to stop and see some friends on the way.

Hopefully we will get a even bigger meet this year. I think I will beg/borrow a radar/laser detector somehow this year. Tickets suck.

[wrightme43]

Hell yeah!!! You will have a blast.

Being the old fart that I am, I tow my bike and have an extra slot on the trailer if you'd rather save the riding for the twisties.

[ant_mb]

I forgot to mention that I'm in for Thursday and Monday as well. I don't really want to ride back on Sunday. hopefully we can get enough interest and maybe get it for the whole week.

They are both super cool to talk to. It looks like we wont have any problem filling the Ridge and may need the Point if we can find some couples that want to share a house it would be cheaper for them. Maybe Jim and his wife and Tourguide and Aleshia would like to go in on the Ridge. Its up to them though. Even renting both full size beds in a room would be cheaper than a hotel. ​

I might try to be in the area during this time. It all depends on my job situation. I can't wait to take the Fizz to the Smokies.

 

[ant_mb]

I just got off the phone with Ron and we're all set up. He put us down for the Thursday, I'll just have to let him know if we can't make it on Thursday.

 

[opds9091]

I am in, i get paid on Wednesday, who is taking the money this year

 

[opds9091]

Being the old fart that I am, I tow my bike and have an extra slot on the trailer if you'd rather save the riding for the twisters.

that would be great, i will PM you after the new year and we will talk about it, CAN'T WAIT

 

[ant_mb]

That would be me, [email protected] is my Paypal address. We have 7 who are paid up, and the reservations are made.

To let everyone know all 7 beds have been paid for, but as Steve said there are multiple places to sleep. 3 recliners(one of which I slept in last year for a night), a couch, a couple futons in the garage and cots that can be brought up by Ron. Last year was a blast, and I can't wait for next years trip.
