It's a gas to ride the Dragon. Wish the traffic was less, though. Really crowded on weekends.

I think we had a little luck and a little planning help there. We rode Deals Gap on Friday morning a couple of times and then hit the other roads (Moonshine 28, Wayah, Cherahola SKyway, etc) for the rest of Friday and all of Sat then boogied back on Sunday. For the most part, the traffic was really not bad...but we weren't on Deal Gap on Sat or Sun. My biggest problem was catching up to other vehicles going slower than I was...you know, cars...and a lot of Harleys.
