Much has changed in a year! In 2012 I was in the New England area, making my 2012 Nova Scotia Trip (see link here) easier from a travel standpoint.
Now being in the Mid-West, its time to look for new adventures! I have always wanted to have 'The Tail of the Dragon' on my list of places to visit. Now we can. As with all motorcycle trips, there is meaning behind the saying, 'Its not the destination, its the journey'.

Our trip will take us through Kentucky, Tennessee, Carolinas, and West Virginia. It will be a 4 day trip and hopefully I can plan as I did for Nova Scotia to have 'days end' exactly where they need to be based on feeling like we had a full day. Ruth will be flying in on Friday May 24 and the fun begins the Saturday with a straight shot through Kentucky to our first destination to position us for a Sunday ride through the Tail of the Dragon.....
