Dragon Tales

Our last trip to the mountains was a bit of a change. 4 wheels instead of 2. The wife and I talked about how we somewhat missed making the trip on the bike. There's just no way 4 is going to feel the same as 2. That said I have to say overall we thoroughly enjoyed the trip and the ride which is what its all about anyway. It rained going up for the first 75 miles or so then fairly good the rest of the way despite Hurrican Matthew not so far away. Being able to put the top up while raining and early moring trips around the mountains was nice. The real test though was riding the Dragon once up/down with wife then once again up/down by myself for the first time being able to push the car to it's limits in respect to hanlding. Wow! it was a blast, different, but great fun. The other positive was being able to ride in great scenery and roads while being able to listen to some great tunes and actually hear them. Anywho, I snagged a couple pics posted below from 129Slayer very similar to Killboy.com if you are familiar with them. Oh, we did zip lines while we were up there and I was reallly proud of the wife for doing the whole course. The same day we went to the Dragon we stopped on the way to do some horseback riding. It was actully more fun than I imagined. The last two pics are my wife and up front was our guide. The worst part was having to come back home to the flat straight roads of Florida. BOOO!Oh well we are already talking about when we might be able to come back to the mountains.
