    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Due to the big rock slide on I 40 there has been a huge increase in semi traffic on US 129 AKA The Dragon on the Tennessee - North Carolina border. They have been averaging a stuck semi a day there lately and it will probably continue until 40 is reopened next spring (hopefully). This is due to GPS units giving 129 as an alternate to 40.
 
Good info! I'll be headed that way in the cage in a couple weeks. I'll need to plan accordingly.
 
Maybe the local po-leece will hand out enough crossing-the-yellow tickets that they'll meet their revenue quota for the year early...? :D
 
I live in Maryville at the foot of The Gap. Awesome road that it is it's become infested with cops, idiots, tourists and I avoid the place on weekends/holidays now a days. That being said there are literally thousands of miles of awesome road here in East TN. Ride in any direction and you'll find a twisty road. If anyone ever finds themselves in the area feel free to drop me a pm.

i wanted to ride the dragon's tail last summer but plans dropped. you are right, there are plenty o' good roads in east tn. my uncle used to live in maryville and i took some nice rides to get there from asheville by getting off 40 asap. i want to take a little ride up thru asheville and over to nashville. maybe this year
 
Drop me a message anytime you head this way. My bike is getting rebuilt right now and I hope to have it up before the riding season kicks into full swing. Even if it's still not road ready I'll gladly meet anyone in the area for lunch and my garage is always open to anyone coming through that needs one.
