    Anyone Interested in a Motorcycle Rideout Hangout

    Looking at the forums there seems to be more and more people that ride here. Anyone interested in getting together for a weekend of riding and a hangout? We could make a central place and hangout or ride from there, or make a loop with a couple stops.

    I'm in New Orleans, LA and see a lot of people are in the Southeast. Thinking Alabama or the Smokies might be nice. Up for anywhere that is not too bad of a ride from everyone.
    Is that too much to ask? Girls with frikkin' lasers on their heads?

    When you have a backpack on, no matter where you are, you’re home.

    Looks like the Dragon, sometime this fall.

    Watching you ride up in a kilt on a harley would be worth the price of admission.

    If I can help plan it, let me know. I'd definitely be down for it. Anytime other than the 21 Oct Weekend.

    I'm interrested if the timing works out.

    Cherohala Motorcycle Resort in Tellico Plains is nice and is within easy striking distance of both ends of the Dragon...great loop either way you ride. Be advised though, Dragon is crowded every weekend.

    Re "riding the Harley in a kilt: BTDT.

    I got a definite "Maybe" from Jon yesterday. Actually he said: "Get a helmet & we'll talk" so I took that as a "YES!"

    DUDE, I did the Dragon in my pickup about 6 years ago, OMG Of course I'm in for that.

    I wonder if Jeff & Nancy at the Hike Inn outside of Fontana would let us stay a night?

    I'm going to the Linville hangout, so it needs be after that.

    camping at the dragon

    most people don't realize the best camping at the "store" is up the hill by the NICE bath house. it is a steep up hill lose gravel road from the grassy camping area. walking works but ridding is iffy. easy riding in from wheelie hill, all wooded with a truck path vs a road. another good mc campground with tree is Willville at meadows of dan va and also blue ridge mc campground at cruso, depending on wher you want to go. the week of october 11th works best for me the leaves should be turning by then.
