Who's driven the Tail of the Dragon?

[RandallNeighbour]

First trip to the TOD was with a group from this forum. I've been back 6 times from SE Texas since! I love the area and plan to retire there one day.

Lots of things to see and do there. Hiking, fishing, and other outdoor activities. Gatlinburg was awful though... far too commercialized for its location, just a couple of feet from the entrance to the Smoky Mountain National Park.

Cherokee is close by and it has a nice casino if you want to gamble and eat at a really good buffet.

And the TOD is just one famous road there to drive. There's all sorts of twisty roads around those parts where driving is fun. And just so you'll know, I get nauseated every time I drive the TOD for some reason so I go up and down it once and then drive the other roads, which are just as much fun and not quite as twisty and steep. Your mileage may vary.

That was epic. Spring of 2007. I had just gotten the very first PSE available in the USA installed on the 987S. Derb, NickCats, Patrick, your buddy in the Toyota, and a few others. Will always remember that trip. And we left nothing on the Tree Of Shame.
