Default Finally - Tail of the Dragon pics

I wrote a few weeks ago about being on the TOTD and submitted a few pics of us on the Fontana Dam in the meantime. Well I finally received my photos. The photograpers sure use amazing cameras. The wheels look like they aren't even moving.

Nice pics. Thanks. Big fan of aventurine (sp?) green too. Looks like you're having fun. That's good.

Yes, aventurine green. Many favorable comments, but I guess I wouldn't hear the negative ones.

I did the Dragon last year when we lived around Philly and were on vacation with our cars in the Smokey's. Now I live north of Atlanta just 3 hours away. Sure thing I'll be back a couple of times.

Anytime guys but preferably not a weekend. We went on the Cherohala Skyway yesterday (Wednesday). Really quiet with only about 40-50 motorcycles the entire distance. Saw a new Audi R8 really hauling and handling the road with no problem at all. I think the best part was the 68 degree temperature at the 5000' level.
