I've been trying to take a ride every Sunday morning for coffee. USPS has me starting at zero dark thirty so I don't wanna ride to work in the dark. Got cut off 2 sundays ago right near my house. Dumped the bike right in the middle of the highway. No injury very little damage. 58 yo, trying to get the big ninja up was not fun to watch. Was rethinking things a bit afterwords but I'm back.

81 in Oct and put mine away a year ago ! Miss it terribly !!!!!!!!!!!!!
My wife and I got back in the saddle last year after a 10 year lay off while raising our grandson. I'm 64, she's well, a little older than me.
Started with this 2007 Heritage:

About a month ago we decided we wanted the comfort and capacity for longer rides so we traded the Heritage in on this 2012 Ultra Classic:

Last week we took off for the Smokies. Rode the Dragon, Cherohola Skyway and Moonshiner which have long been on my want to do list.

How was the Dragon? Did you ride it during the week or on the weekend. I here it is somewhat dangerous on the weekends with the gotta go fast crowds.My wife and I got back in the saddle last year after a 10 year lay off while raising our grandson. I'm 64, she's well, a little older than me

Someone asked me if I had ever ridden the "Dragon". My answer was ----"Not since they paved it " !!!!!!!
Rode the Dragon on a weekday, in the rain. That slowed us us a bit but I wasn't going to try and set any records anyway. Still had more traffic than I expected, I'll bet the weekends would be nuts! It's tight and technical, I was in third gear once for maybe 300 feet. Other than that it was mostly 2nd gear with 1st on the 15 MPH hairpins. Glad I did it, got the shirt, but enjoyed the Cherohola Skyway and Moonshiner more.

As stated the dragon is definitely nuts on the weekends, not as bad on weekdays but worse any day than it used to be. I have ridden it many times back in the day but don't care for it any more. Cherohala Skyway is a great ride and not nearly as busy.
Off with shoulder surgery won't be able to ride till spring but those are my two. Not along distance rider 250 to 300 miles a day i'm happy. Not a biker either. Just enjoy driving anything and everything. Bikes fall into that category. :)
