Riding the dragon

#1 Unread post by Gatineau_Guy »

For your viewing pleasure - the rider in the lead is on a goldwing! I think this is in North Carolina. I could be wrong though.

Nice riding! I'm surprised I didn't see any sparks. Now for the important question.... where is that road?

Impressive!

Did anyone else get the feeling that the 'wing rider was putting his knee down so he didnt scrape the luggage???

Is this the road in question: http://www.tailofthedragon.com/

That is Deal's Gap in Tennessee. That is an 1800 Goldwing up front. There is a guy who rides a yellow 1800 GW regulary over these parts that is well known for leaving everyone else behind.
There is no such thing as a bad motorcycle.

Very cool. I'll have to check that road out the next time I'm visiting my mother in Alabama.

Holy "poo poo" is right. Who would have thought a Goldwing could do that. Definately some skilled riders there to get a nearly 1/2 ton bike moving like that.

I can just see the looks from some guy riding a gixxer on there as 2 Goldwings blow past him LOL
