    Tail of the Dragon

    Every road out there has its own characteristics, some are long winding curves, some are more intense but smooth curves. On the Dragon, I stopped several times to gain a gap with riders in front of me to really test my limits. I didn't mind the traffic at all. It was a part of the challenge to...

    Tail of the Dragon

    Waze saved us from a special blitz in Virginia, where they had an aircraft up. I don't think they fine foriegners in excess, but yes in some States they pull, out of state vehicles more. The town to watch is Summerville, WV. Cops pull out of state plates even if you are just 1 mile above...

    Tail of the Dragon

    It all depends when and where you ride it. Weekends are usually busy and slow. We did a 100km run and it was nothing like what you have mentioned. Road is a must ride. The approach road to BRP was very nice too. Infact, ride every road you hear about, but please be at your 100% when you are...

    Tail of the Dragon

    We had one trailer for emergencies. 1 sport bike on it all the way. One bike on it on return journey due to clutch failure. All had bluetooth, we called each other if needed, instead of using mesh or group intercomm. I believe talking and riding is risky especially if you are 30 to 40% over...

    Tail of the Dragon

    I had considered that route but found I79 19 74 much more interesting. Be careful in VA, 81 and over can mean imprisonment. If you want our route I can share gpx files. Always keep WAZE on. Works 80% of the time

    We stayed at Two Wheel Inn. Our group liked the place a lots. Each room has a motorcycle garage attached. We mostly ate light food. No time to cook, used every minute to ride.

    Tail of the Dragon

    We are still settling the final numbers. Some of us were sharing rooms. Average hotel price was around $100 per night. DONOT travel without health insurance.

    Tail of the Dragon

    Very good suggestion. 5M coverage costs around $20, which will cover a $50,000.00 helicopter ride from the Dragon.

    Tail of the Dragon

    On the contrary, we found US drivers much more better than Canadians. Not even once anyone gave us shivers. The moment we crossed over to Canada, there were ample morons to welcome us back.

    Tail of the Dragon

    We, a group of 15 riders from GTA, went for a 6 day trip to Tail of the Dragon. 2 days going; 2 days there; 2 days back. All made back safely. If I could, I would go back right now. If I can be of any help to anyone who is planning to go there, please feel free to ask.
