Chy, Plan B sounds much better to me too......the Dragon is just kind of a status thing anyway; ya know "I RODE THE DRAGON" (nose in the air). I live an hour away and have NEVER ridden it, it just doesn't interest me with all the sport bike idiots passing you, putting you in danger. If you're thinking of doing a Highlands/Franklin ride, check out Hwy. 28 coming from the Robbinsville/Bryson City area; sweet twisties, beautiful views. I'd be more than happy to meet ya for a pre-rally excursion to scope out stops/restaurants and all that good stuff........
