[QUOTE="Bill Lumberg, post: 1342893, member: 87479"] I live right by the roads you describe, or pretty close, anyway. I've never found a problem getting a wide open Dragon, but I don't go during peak times. Only once in years have I hit it at peak, because I was meeting my brother. And it took a long time to get through. Ended up working one wreck (cruiser, broken leg) and having to slip around a stranded semi that blocked most traffic for hours. There are plenty of "name" roads, like BRP, Wolf Pen Gap, Cherohala Skyway, and the Dragon, but for every one of those, there are three or four lesser known roads. Some of the best riding is getting to and from the big name stretches. Unfortunately, due to work and a bike that was down almost half the year, I have ridden in the mountains very little. Oddly, November and December will have me riding more than I got to in Spring and Summer, though I did have a great Tour of Honor/1K the first of April. [/QUOTE]
