There be Dragons in those hills....


Today was a fun but hot day.  Got up to about 90, which was quite a change from the 39 degrees last week.   

We got stuck behind some Model A club.  They wound up gettin gas at the same station.  


Then we went up on Cherohala Skyway. Always nice up there.  Lotta bikes.  I only took a few pics up there.  


From there it was more riding heading towards the Dragon.  I pulled off on the bridge by Cheoah Dam before getting to Deal's Gap to snap some pics.  


If you've seen The Fugitive, thats the dam  Harrison Ford jumps out of.   We stopped again at the top too. 


From there it was on to Deal's Gap for lunch and to get a couple shirts.  Also took some pics of the Tree of Shame. 



Then it was dragon slayin time.  Will be lookin for pics of us on the Dragon later.  This was us after the Dragon. 


Then we rode down and went on the Foothills Parkway.  

 
Once we finished that, we were hot and tired, so it was time to head back to the lake. Slightly sunburned, but great time.  

265 miles ridden today
1778 total miles ridden on trip.
