This weekend a friend of mine (Vince) and I met up with some folks in TN plus my friend Kathy and rode some incredible roads in TN, NC, VA and KY. The cherry on top was riding a stretch of US-129 referred to as Tail of the Dragon, or more simply just The Dragon. It was organized by Grant F. and was intended as a Suzuki Burgman rally, but I crashed it with my Yamaha Majesty. The trophy for this feat (riding the Dragon is a big deal due to the number of injuries and deaths per month-sometimes per WEEK!) was a sticker which you can get nowhere on earth besides Deals Gap, which is the start or finish of The Dragon...) There was only one casualty...the front wheel well/fender of my bike. It became repairably damaged in a bad gravel road which turned to dirt with 18" deep ruts...
