    With that said, I'd be in depending on when and where. Time is my worst enemy. The only thing Mississippi would offer is Rocky Springs (a campground on the Natchez Trace, no power or water) but then you have the beautiful trace ride.

    Looking at the posts it looks like:

    Place: Tail of the Dragon
    Date: Weekend of Oct 2nd.

    That just leaves where to camp. Here are the suggestions in the thread. I'll go off of everyone else's input, haven't been to any of then. With leaf and touron season coming up we might want to try and book ahead.

    Can anyone say one over the other? Also a head count with what you will be riding could help us plan and find people.

    I'll be 2Up on a black Triumph Speed Triple.

    The suggestions are:

    1. A few Nantahala Nat. Forest campgrounds nearby - Cable Cove, Horse Cove and Cheoah Point

    2. Near Dragon, on hwy 28 few trees but far apart

    3. http://www.kickstandlodge.com/grounds/index.html

    4. www.ironhorsenc.com Just off Hwy 28, near Dragon...several trees..

    5. Bryson City & Cherokee, about a 30 & 45 minutes drive from Fontana

    I'm looking forward to getting a close up look at your BMW. I'm thinking my next bike is going to be a classic BMW, Triumph, or BSA. Just waiting until I live somewhere with a garage.

    Two lines that together were the largest motorcycle manufacturer in the world, until they bankrupted the parent company.

    Sortof a no-brainer to me.

    Well, Y-all have fun. I got to work the 3rd.

    Give me time to save up for my own bike anyway! Could own one now, but my choices were" buy a Harley or go hiking. I don't have a Harley so, , , , , , , , , , , ,
