Dragon Tails Ep.7 - Sunset on the Back of the Dragon
In this series we explore the different "Dragon" rides in our beautiful country. The iconic "Tail of the Dragon", "Back of the Dragon", and "The Head of the Dragon". The videos will also include a spinoff of the Cherohala Skyway & Burke's Gardens.
This summer (2023) we took our son for his 18th Birthday to Deals Gap. We trailered 2 bikes, and I rented a bike. When we dropped him off at college, we decided to make stop in Tazwell, VA and ride the Back of the Dragon. We went again 2 weeks later. Weve rode with some good friends and even made new friends. There will be allot more "Tail of the Dragon" fun as well as the "Back of the Dragon" and the "Head of the Dragon."
In 2022, we took nearly a 1700-mile trip that included a stop at "Ivan's" (If you know you know) to get the ECU flashed on our FJR-1300. On the way home, we were so close Deals Gap that we extended our trip to include it. This is where the idea of my channel began.
Here is some interesting history for the Tail of the Dragon:
