You should have come 2 hours further east, rented one of my cabins and I could show you roads that make the dragon look like an interstate, with no traffic and no cops. The dragon is very overrate.

let me know when you are coming and I will organize some rides. We have lots of Porsche owners that are always ready to hit the twisties.

I am also thinking of returning for a north to south Skyline drive + Blue Ridge parkway to Cherokee this spring
Then doing the Dragon
But now I have to re-think the dragon part
There is also a Blue Ridge Boxsters thing happening in Little Switzerland

Let me know when you are coming and I will give you directions to one called the back of the dragon that is over 30 miles long, constant twisties, no traffic and no cops. I'll even go with you and show you some great eating places.

They are on vacationrentals.com and are numbers 7026505 and 7027647. All info and pics are there. We are in little Switzerland just off the BRP right where the diamondback starts (226A) and just down the parkway from highway 80 and surrounded by roads much better than the dragon.
