TAIL OF THE DRAGON

Very few travel destinations have stories I’m excited about. I could do a book on “The Mother Road”, Rte 66, having traveled, photographed, written and read about it for 40 years, and I probably should have for its 100th Anniversary this year. However, I am not known for doing the obvious. I’d rather focus on the meaningful and overlooked.

Tennessee’s “Tail of the Dragon” is not necessarily overlooked, especially for sports car and motorcycle riders, but the twisty mountain road is just part of the story. What surrounds it, the people, the scenery and the experiences, just make it that much better.

I’m back home now after a couple of days driving it. Good times! Sorry rental car. Don’t worry it just needs an oil change, new tires and brake pads.
Look for an article in the future.
