Great Smoky Mountains HOG Rally Day 1

Yesterday, I made it into Maryville after a very short ride and went straight to the rally check in location. This makes 11 HOG rallies for me this summer, the maximum possible 😁. Later, I went to the Smoky Mountain HD for the opening ceremony and found several people I met on other rallies. How cool to see folks again.

This morning, Chris &Tammy from Arizona, Doc & Mary from Missouri, Kevin from California, and I left the hotel at 08:00 to ride the Tail of the Dragon (TN129) and the Hellbender (NC28). Each is a terrific twisty-turny route and the location for the TN and NC 50 Rides 1 Nation photos. That brings me to 46 😁.

Now we've stopped at the Bryson City HD for a photo (me) and shopping (them). It's a great day to ride!!

So long [for now], and thanks for all the fish! ✌️

Day 193 mileage: 131.1 (total 54128.2)
