Kim we are a go for the Spring TOD. The dates in the fall are quickly becoming impossible so we'll get our fix in April Already had our reservation switched.

The only experience I've had on The Dragon meeting a vehicle not suited for that stretch of road was a couple of years back. Coming home from Alcoa, TN I took US129 back to US28 and then home. Met a police escort for a mobile home on The Dragon. Cop warned me that the rig was probably a 1/2 mile behind him and to make sure I didn't meet the rig in a curve. Since I wouldn't be able to see him far enough ahead if the curve was a blind left-hander, on the next short straight section I came to, I pulled over to the shoulder and just waited for mobile home to pass me.

Last fall during my 4 runs ( actually 2 - I'm counting both ways ), I saw 3 motorcycles off the road in a ditch.
