Nobody?

 

Thats not too far from Nashville. I would love to try that. I hear you gotta watch out for bikers during the summer though.

 

I would if i wasnt so far away it looks prety cool.

 

Been there done that. Took the L down last year, year before that I rode my motorcycle there. It's unbelievable, by the time you get to the end your tired. Also scary, there's no guard rails most of the way. I love it.

 

Move this thread to the General Discussion forum.
But wait, it's from a supporting vendor.

 

There is/was a yearly Buell Club ride there....Lots of road rash....For a warm up try old 421 between Boone and Bristol...

 

The SCMC runs down there every year I think.
A lot of my froends have been, but unless they closed the road
and made it a timed event, I don't think I wanna do it.

 

My life almosted ended there in 2000.

But... it's a fun ride on a bike. It's those trees you gotta watch out for!

You got that right. I almost took out a few on my old ZX-9.

 

Sounds like fun but watch out for semi's

that looks awsome.... wish there was something like that around here.

 

I have heard of it, many of my friends wrecked their cars and motorcycles there. So I never go with them.

 

what a great way to burn up a set of brakes in a Lightning!

 

On average, thats a turn every 182.64 feet.
