ROLL CALL on next Dragon Trip -- Sept 19th

ROLL CALL


We propose a Monday Sept 19  2:30 PM arrival at Wheels Through Time Motorcycle Museum ($12 admission) followed by a roll around the area and a Hotwire $29 split between 2 guys hotel stay in a local 2 star hotel.   This area is to include a trip down the infamous ROAD TO NOWHERE and a video of you going into the Tunnel of No Return.  If we want, the entire Dragon loop we used to ride is touching this area to the West so the next morning we could go Dragon our way up into Tennessee instead of going up tame old hwy 421.   This would leave the Dragon fresh in our minds to be compared against the Diamondback for quality of twisties.

Tuesday we will stay at a $29 Hotwire Gatlinburg/Dollywood area hotel and we will roam around Tennessee's Country Tinsel Town for a bit.   What we do depends on what catches our fancy as there is TOO TOO much to do to even describe all the opportunities.  The best Aquarium on the East Coast is only one example, the infamous Ripley's Believe it or Not is another.

Wednesday we will loop around and down to Little Switzerland and do the Diamondback (a dragon wannabe) and go visit Mount Mitchell.   We will meet up with Serenity and whomever else finally answers the ROLL CALL and we will roll for however long they have.   We need a complete roster of people to book wherever we stay -- so answer the ROLL CALL !!

Get up Thursday with all of the Black Mountains before us, having found a local road map we also might just find a wee little black line or two that goes over the top of something interesting looking.   We will go ride up them durn rich people's extended state supported driveways that go up to all them impressive chalets you see hanging off the peaks of some of those tall tall mountains.

Friday AM early, split up and trek on home, all tired and beat up in body but all happy in soul ....




==========================




Roll call has closed on this trip as we had to start booking Hotwire hotels if we wanted the cheap $29 rates (leaf time is approaching and the rates go up to over $100 a night very soon).

All is not lost, we still have a free night for you staying at the Camper Cabin at http://www.linvillefalls.com/  on Wednesday Sept 21 -- this will be the culmination of the run and this location is near by about 4 of our other list members who have said previously they wanted to ride the new Diamondback and go up Mount Mitchell with us.

REMEMBER, FREE NIGHT'S LODGING on Wednesday, Sept 21st at http://www.linvillefalls.com/

Driller, it is that way for everybody -- this is why we do a fall trip to try to catch the ones who weren't able to make the summer trip.

We also try to keep these trips low cost, because none of us are rich.
