Yep was there last month. So many pseudo racers are on it that it's crowded and not as fun as it was 20 years ago when few knew about it. The ricki racer bikes are one thnig but when the ricers or kraut mobiles convoy up to run it it's nasty.

I found the chilhowee trail to be a far better ride with it's sweepers and far less traffic.

Not to mention there are'nt roving Police patrols and radar spots all over it. :D

That is one awsome road.  Went down and back in late Feb this year.  Since it was the "off season" mostly just locals, who are nice enough to get out of your way if you are driving a sports car.

There are some really scary corners...and what makes em even more scary is to see tire tracks leading off the road (and usually down a pretty steep cliff...and in one case a set of tracks went into the river!)

This is one road the fun nazis haven't found yet, thank God.
