Champsin, surely you could put more effort into your posts than that ^

I deleted 7 of the 11 of your previous rubbish posts as pointed out to you by a mod.

To answer his question however....

I was there 2 weeks ago, and my boss lent me his Fazer 1000, and took me to Deals Gap, along the cherahola skyway, and then down into Georgia, and then back - busy weekend.

In the 10 days I was in Alabama, I saw ONE zrx (and it was in Georgia I think) - it was an 1100 - at a small petrol-station-come bike-shop at the East end of the Cherohola skyway run by a very London-sounding guy who swore he was from Fife - sounded fishy to me, but he did know Fife!

Fay Fife was the singer from the Rezillos!

Ahh.... the wonderful sound of 20,000 rezillos under the sea..

I'm suprised to see mention of Deals Gap. I'm currently in NC but for about the last 5 years the buds (from atlanta, florida, and montana), would schedule at least 3 dragon runs a year. Is the road well known of on the other side of the pond? I've met several folks from Canada that made a special trip, but none from Europe.

My boss took me there - it was just a place I heard of that wasnt far away, and was meant to be fun.

Being totally honest, the 'gap was a complete let-down, if that is a "fearsome" stretch of road, then people really need to come to Scotland, and I'll show them a much twistier, much bumpier and more fun section of road (its longer too and doesnt have a 35mph speed limit).

It was fun to ride, but nothing like its reputation, I can add it to the list of places Ive been now, and do hope to go back again sometime, but it wasnt quite what I was led it to be. There are plenty of roads like that in the UK.

The Morganton Highway from Ducktown down to Suches (hwy-60??)was a far better road to ride on, as was the hill coming out of Helen GA, heading north - fantastic cambers - real easy at 70-80mph.

ALex.

I don't live in Alabama, but my work area covers the Southern part of the state from US 80 South to the Gulf of Mexico.
