Default DFR 2018 - The Tellico Plains-Cherohala Skyway Excursion

Saturday after the group Dragon drive head from the Gravel Lot tot the Harley Store up Rt 129 about 7 miles and meet in the big parking lot on the left. We'll drive to Tellico Grains in Tellico Plains for lunch and then drive the Cherohala Skyway. The Skyway is a relaxing way to spend a Saturday with lots of sweeping curves, gorgeous views and great people.

Hi! What time are you all looking to do this group dragon run on Saturday? I may like to meet up with you all, but would like an idea of when and where I should try to be.

Ken... we will probably be turning right out of Fontana... to hit some roads heading east!

Not sure where yet.... but isn't that half the adventure?

Maybe I'll do that in the spring... "Drive to where you probably haven't been before!"

Well signed up today and looking forward to testing out the new suspension. Of course seeing the gang once again. Thinking about heading east to check out new roads too. Love the Skyway but ready for something different. See y'all in a couple of weeks.
