Tail of the Dragon?

http://tailofthedragon.com/index.html

I saw this whilst urinating in a public bathroom. Anyone hear of this / drove it before?

Sounds like a cool road trip O.o!

Heard of it from a few of my friends. Supposed to be like 140 curves in 3 miles or something. If I can get a club started in Chattanooga going to make this a date.

Thought about taking a trip down to Georgia to visit a friend over the summer, and drive this on the way back. Plans fell through though.

I hear that the place is crawling with cops nowadays.

It's an amazing road, I go twice a year with a bunch of guys from different forums in GA, TN, and NC. If you haven't been, I highly recommend it! And the cops aren't that bad. Usually only 1-2 on that whole road, and chances are they already have someone pulled over by the time you come by, just do a slow one through first, check their locations, and you're good. Most common ticket is crossing the line anyway, which is only $20.

drove this road this year and it was amazing. All the roads there are awesome, even the ride to the cabin was eventful. I do recommend this trip to anyone.
