Is the Tail of the Dragon overrated?
#3
I'm not sure I'd say overrated but certainly not a road I feel is worth the safety risk especially on weekends. As Bob stated, ride it once on a weekday just to say you did, spend a couple of hours at the hangout down at the bottom looking at the Tree of Shame and then mossy on down Hwy 28.

When you get to Helen we can take a full day and enjoy the highest point in GA checking out the scenery (Thanks Bob for mentioning this to me) as that will be right close to The Gauntlet which we'll ride one day. Several uTube videos on this 133 mile route as well.

Terry and John told me they felt the roads around Helen were as good as those they rode in NC. I agree having spent 2 days there riding this fall.
