Blue Ridge Mountains – Moto Mecca

The Horizons Unlimited meeting was held just outside of Robbinsville, NC at Iron Horse Lodge.  Bob rode 785 miles of "blue highways" (each way) to attend.  The meeting as well at the beautiful landscape was worth the time and sore butt.  The meeting was attended by many experienced long-distance travelers as well as a few newbies looking for information and tips for future trips.  There were a few "round-the-world" riders there and several in the process of accumulating continents.  The famous "Dragons Tail" was close to Robbinsville as well as other wonderful mountain roads.  You may remember from an earlier post that the Dragons Tail has 318 curves in 11 miles of pavement.  Yep, "Old Bob" rode the dragon (slowly).
