While riding through North Carolina and Tennessee on my solo motorcycle trip I saw a $350,000 Ferrari CRASHES on Tail of the Dragon! I decided to ride my 2018 ‪@harleydavidson‬ Road Glide special down to Florida from Ohio. On my journey down, I stopped in Asheville North Carolina to experience the beauty of the Blue Ridge Parkway as well as the Tail of the Dragon! Little did I know just how much one Ferrari crash would affect my whole day!

What's the craziest thing you've seen on the Tail of the Dragon??

@HarleyGurl114 2 года назад

In May 2015 we had an Audi go off road and burst into flames! Very sad and stained my brain!!

@bradrose5418 2 года назад

When I was about 18 years old I saw a friend of mine go off the side of the mountain on a CBR 600 F3

@denisestaley2724 2 года назад

There were several crazy things on the Dragon that used to make local news. People dressed in costumes for things like Halloween, and people riding the Dragon with barely anything on. Most of the stories were about the crashes because the negative seems to always outweigh the positive. Happy 2nd birthday for the channel and Happy Halloween!

@mmcguire5687 2 года назад

Me…in 2013. All the way from Alberta Canada

@MichaelH416 2 года назад

In June this year there was a 60 for camper pulling a car behind it. 🤦‍♂️ Wish I k ew you were out there. I have all kinds of gpx routes on the Harley Ride Planner for the area. Tail of the Dragon, Moonshiner 28, Cherohalla Skyway, Devil’s Triangle. All great roads. And the best Harley dealership in the country, Smokey Mountain H-D.

@JE-tz4sh 2 года назад

So refreshing to see someone’s excitement on roads I see daily and often take for granted. Ride safe.

@MOTOBLADE 2 года назад

Every time I rode the dragon I saw some form of accident. No exceptions. The first time I rode it, I saw a brand new street glide slid over the edge and gone down in the ravine. Rider was scratched up but no major injuries. People think it's their personal racetrack and they pay the price for it.

@ozarkwheels4158 2 года назад

Way too many riders with minimal skills do it. Target fixation doesn’t affect seasoned riders, so they don’t go off the side of the hill. But newbies get focused on the edge of that road and head straight for it at 30mph.

@ozarkwheels4158 2 года назад

You don’t know what you don’t know. Or in Sec. MacNamara’s terms, “unknown unknowns.”

@wasidanatsali6374 2 года назад

My house is in the flight path of the medivac helicopters picking up injured riders on the Dragon. On sunny summer weekends those medivac choppers are flying back and forth over my house all day like a death march. My wife has a friend who’s a cleaner at the Microtel in Robbinsville and she says she’s lost count of the times she’s had to go in a room and pack up the belongings of someone who has died in on the Dragon.

@wasidanatsali6374 2 года назад

@Mona B Everyone thinks they have the driving skills to go faster than the next guy. If you were really that good, you wouldn’t be using a crooked ass 35mph public road with no shoulders as your racetrack. 🙄

@georgebullard9637 2 года назад

Girl, the Parkway is a week trip, not a day trip!!, from Cherokee, NC, through Asheville, Mt. Mitchell , little Switzerland , etc.

@bradleyyounger8499 2 года назад

I knew you would like that ride. Moved from Florida to NC 5 years ago. Best decision I ever made. Mild winter and summer and beautiful scenery. Forgot how much I missed the green.

@ericinnc 2 года назад

Dang, as soon as you said NC, I thought, well I could buy her lunch and a good beer! Then, reality set in and I laughed as all videos are posted after the trip. Enjoyed the leaves, scenery and of course you commenting along the way!

@kevincraigyates5443 2 года назад

Your only given one life. I am so glad that you're living yours to the fullest. Love your content and as long as you are cotent in how you're living everyday to the fullest we all are happy viewing all of your videos. Whoa,that was long winded

@AR-jz7lp 2 года назад

Good on ya for stopping to check if everyone was ok👍

@jasonholby8915 2 года назад

Great video. The yip yip on the seat makes it perfect.

@junulock 2 года назад

The best part of this video is watching your excitement and amazement because that is the best statement for why we go out to ride a motorcycle. It is an experience unlike any other mode of travel. Happy anniversary.

@mikekovacs5392 2 года назад

Hey Jess, Rode the Dragon for the first time this past Memorial Day weekend. I almost got killed by a blue corvette that was passing a pickup truck. I came around a corner just in time to see him pull out to pass. I hit my brakes while still negotiating the turn and heard the exhaust of the Vette as the driver hit the afterburners. Glad I rode it but I won’t ever go back. Be safe and love your channel.

@briancooper9813 2 года назад

Riding the Tail of The Dragon 🐉 is all about enjoying and riding it at your pace is the best way to enjoy it. The Ferrari obviously was doing it beyond their ability like so many do. Glad you enjoyed the Dragon 🐉. I've ridden it several time's and absolutely love it every time.

@whatsbruin59 2 года назад

This is Definitely one of your BEST videos. 👍

@abassplayer4life 2 года назад

Absolutely beautiful! Thank you for taking us along for the ride. I'll be riding the Tail Of The Dragon in the Spring, along with other great rides in the area.

@eldenjr 2 года назад

The parkway is a beautiful trip. Have traveled it several times on my way back to childhood home in MD. Keep scooting, Jess. Don't let that dragon getcha!

@LIFELOVER715 2 года назад

Great video . . . definitely. But the sophistication of the photography, the synchronization of the different angles & views is exceptional. Talented & skillful.

@Mortikaismiles 2 года назад

The happiness and elation of your voice in the intro instantly transported me back to being on thr BRP ❤️

@jenniferspeer7597 2 года назад

Love this video! This is definitely on my list for next year. The views😍. You're excitement and joy was infectious. I am seriously happy that you got to do this and on your anniversary!

@justanotherviewer52 2 года назад

Best part of the video is seeing how much fun you are having. Glad Appa is looking after you. Happy two year anniversary!

@markbrooks3724 2 года назад

When you started this. I told you. to be careful and enjoy . Thrilled. the way things have gone for you it's been kind of like watching one of my daughters evolve . keep the passion and once again please be careful especially at night wildlife can be deadly.

@mikespeaks6038 2 года назад

My wife and I got married in Gatlinburg. It will always hold a special place in my heart. We visit every year on our anniversary.

@garrick2600 2 года назад

If you ever get the chance, you should tour the Pacific Northwest. Beautiful mountains, plus the ocean/sound is a breathtaking mixture of natural scenery.

@ridgerunnerrides7612 2 года назад

Congrats on your 2yr celebration! Glad you enjoyed your trip to our backyard! We have so many great roads in this area! Looking forward to more videos like this one!

@gojudude 2 года назад

Yes you do!!!! We go over the dragon because it's our shortest way to Robbinsville, other than that we prefer to ride it at night...got the whole road to ourselves.

@ironrider7213 2 года назад

its so cool to see your excitement being in the mtns. I think those of us who live here take the beauty of the area for granted sometimes

All I can think of is Bilbo takling to Gandalf. “I want to see mountains again, Gandalf, mountains, and then find somewhere where I can rest. In peace and quiet, without a lot of relatives prying around, and a string of confounded visitors hanging on the bell. I might find somewhere where I can finish my book. I have thought of a nice ending for it: and he lived happily ever after to the end of his days.”

@almikelipscomb 2 года назад

Rode the Dragon early Sept. Stayed two nights at Deal's Gap campground. Went to Wheels Through Time Museum. Met couple of bikers at Deals Gap. Good times.

@jimaryaz 2 года назад

I'm watching this video now for the second time and I rarely watch a video twice. This is your best one so far. It's so enjoyable. Thank you!

@byronwarren7779 2 года назад

I agree, it is one of her best videos!! I plan on doing it next season,ride safe and have fun.

@kevinh8338 2 года назад

AWESOME rides! Also, although the BRP is ‘nice’ by sections, it is amazing to ride all 469 miles of it - only way to appreciate how spectacular it is! Cherohala Skyway another must-ride (TN>NC just south of Deals Gap (Robbinsville to Tellico Plains.). Good job integrating the 360 footage, your editing skills (and content) are really starting to shine after going full-time!

@btrent9244 2 года назад

Superb video. Enjoyed seeing the tail through your lens. Congrats on 2 years. Thank you. 👍🇺🇸😎...

@jonyoung6253 2 года назад

Glad you enjoyed my neck of the woods! The riding in the Blue Ridge and Smokies is hard to beat.

@rob2475 2 года назад

Great to go along with you on such a great ride Jess. I live on a small Island (the Isle of Wight in the UK) so crave long adventurous trails. 👍🏼👍🏼

@WillysPerformanceCycleCtr 2 года назад

The trade mark helmet seems to be back in Ohio.

@terryschieble6248 2 года назад

My gal pal Sherry on her Indian and me on my Super Glide were seriously, but unknowingly, right behind you that day. We stayed just east of Ashevelle that same night. The next day we headed back east toward Hickory. We just moved from Michigan to North Carolina, retired, just so we can ride the mountains the rest of our lives. It's so beautiful. Glad you enjoyed the Parkway. We sure do.

@usmcars 2 года назад

Some great end of year content, looking forward to all of your journeys you'll bring in the future. Definitely inspiring me to visit these places!

@denisestaley2724 2 года назад

I haven't been watching you since the beginning (probably been 6 months), but I'm catching up with all of your videos. I lived in Knoxville for a while and rode the Trail of the Dragon on my Kawasaki Vulcan back in 2015. My husband has rode it probably 50 times. It's a gorgeous area with tons of "riding roads" to experience. I think my favorite is the Cherohala Skyway!!!! It's gorgeous!

@davidkirkham6786 2 года назад

Hey Jess, My wife and I were on the dragon 3 days after you were there. Wish we could have seen you. Godspeed!

@joebarnett683 2 года назад

You are riding in the most beautiful part of the country. I am 50 miles from the parkway and have ridden the whole road several times.

@curtmahon5130 2 года назад

Hey Jess, really enjoyed your ride thru the Smokey Mountains! Have been on those roads many times! Keep rolling and coming back to visit our little neck of the woods anytime 😎

@harryhowell5644 2 года назад

Rode the dragon tail last year in mid Oct the weather was beautiful. Was going this year but it didn't work out. I love the moonshiner 28 back the other way from the resort. Man that 360 camera is nice.

@uberDoward 2 года назад

Jess! Was up on Blue Ridge for the first time back at the beginning of October (celebrating 17 years of marriage) and I know that feeling of awe! It is SO GORGEOUS up there!

@justin.s9783 2 года назад

@OLBII 2 года назад

Iron Horse Lodge is a great place to stay at and some really beautiful areas to go riding. There is Riders Roost in Ferguson NC and Wheelville in the Meadows Of Dan.

@johnthomas2485 2 года назад

I took a trip up The Blue Ridge Parkway a few years ago. Stopped 1st night and camped in Down By The River in Pineola, NC. I had planned to stop 2nd night in Meadows of Dan, but the weather was getting iffy, so pushed on to Roanoke and hoteled it. Finished it up in Stanton next day. Went the 1st weekend in May. I want to do it again.

@thevoiceinmyhelmet3827 2 года назад

Happy Birthday , Her Two Wheels !!! I have thoroughly enjoyed each and every video that I have seen, not sure how long I've been watching over a year I guess . Jess you are doing great things for the Motorcycling community with your work here! You're enthusiasm for the sport boils over into happiness that is so evident every time you share your rides. This video on the Dragon is just freakin awesome! I was sad to see the Ferrari upside down but glad they were ok. So happy for your success and the freedom you have earned! Happy Days ahead !

@FrankReiland 2 года назад

This may be one if my favorite videos…Thank you for sharing this trip

@frankavellino6659 2 года назад

when we stay there we stay at a place called "the Treetops, Tail of the Dragon Vacations" A retired FF has 3 houses of different sizes with a garage to park/secure the bikes. (also owns the store across from the resort). Glad you enjoyed it

@HarleyGurl114 2 года назад

We stayed there too! Ours had an amazing hot tub up in the treetops! The steep driveway well that was something else!! Especially when we arrived late at night!! Yup straight up and sharp turn to the left haha

@cl2eep_rides 2 года назад

Being from Florida, riding those roads on a Rocket III with a 240 rear tire was quit the test of skills that I don't get to use much! Florida has a lot of long, flat roads. I really enjoyed the Dragon's Tail and BRP, a challenge and absolutely amazing views!

@d.b.7678 2 года назад

Truly a 5 star video *****!...you really have got the hang of this!...you just gave me my first view of Tail of the Dragon!!..Thank You!!

@davidwhite5529 2 года назад

I got out today and rode. It was a beautiful 84 degree day here in Fort Worth Texas today. Perfect for a motorcycle ride.

@ocglide2566 2 года назад

Well done, I rode the dragon in September, planning wasn’t great ended up riding it in the rain. It’s more than most people expect and certainly not for beginners especially in the rain. I guess the best part of it was we didn’t see any other cars or bikes on the entire ride into deals gap. One and done for me, I would not go out of my way to ride it again. I enjoyed the Cherohola Skyway much more.

@STho205 2 года назад

Agreed. I live on Fort Mountain, GA and that daily ride is a more pleasant 20 miles than Deals Gap's 11. I find the roads on either side of Deals Gap 129 are much more rewarding. Cherohala is the best ride in the area. Takes me 1hr 20 to get to Telico Plains by Turtletown and Coker Creek or 1:45 to get to Robbinsville by Murphy on US74. Cherohala Skyway, camp at Indian Boundary. Excellent campground choices. Excellent bath house.

@Henry.58 2 года назад

I'll take the Hills of southern Ohio over the Dragon any day ! Way to many Café bikes and sports cars on the Dragon for my taste.

@scottvereb8146 2 года назад

Jess , next time you return to this area you should stop at the Wheels through time museum, in Maggie valley North Carolina. Its awesome. Keep having FUN !!

@nctexan1970 2 года назад

@her two wheels, the Great Smokey Mountains, Pisgah, and the entire Blue Ridge are a special place of solitude and reflection for my family and I. I take a once a year pilgrimage to the mountains of western NC, eastern TN, north GA and commune with all that is wonderful. It clears my head and preps me for another year of life. I recommend staying at the Ironhorse Motorcycle Lodge on your next visit. Perfect location to launch from and return to. Keep up the great work. Cheers

@kenschmitt7064 2 года назад

We rode the Dragon a few weeks ago for the first time. Loved it on my 2010 Ultra Limited. We will be back there again next spring. Awesome to see you riding there also. Beautiful scenery 💕

@W4HDM 2 года назад

I have the same issue going left. I think my mind tells me if I go Im going off the road as where right you drift into the other lane. I'm a newby on my Road glide as well! You did great!

@bikerboot888 2 года назад

Ive been riding street bikes for 30 years and I’m still uncomfortable with sweeping left turns.

@BrianRLange 2 года назад

Jess, You should come up to Washington state and check out the diverse mix of terrain and roads. In a day's ride you can go from the desert through mountains, along deep river gorges and lush forests and ending at the Pacific Ocean beaches. Come on over and see for yourself.

@specialed5098 2 года назад

As a former rider from up north ( Buffalo NY) I have been taking most of my vacations on BRP, Gatlinburg Dragon etc I moved to Tennessee about 6 yrs ago with only one regret, not doing it sooner. Glad you enjoyed yourself

@119topdawg 2 года назад

Been on the Dragon twice. Much more fun riding up from the TN side towards Deals Gap. First time was on my Chief Vintage and this August on my Chieftain Dark Horse. Enjoyed riding the dragon, However there much prettier and more fun roads. Cheraholla SkyWay and Moonshiner 28 are our favorites. Nice video- one of the best showing off the Dragon. Good on ya

@deniporter3321 2 года назад

"Cheraholla SkyWay and Moonshiner 28 are our favorites", I agree 100%. We chose to NOT ride the "Tail of the Dragon", ..............after I read many reviews AND watched one too many videos of the Dragon' at it's worst. The best rider ever can not avoid the jackasses and morons, riding AND driving too fast and dangerously. No thank you. The other roads/rides are far more scenic and /or equally winding and curvy.

@genekelley7579 2 года назад

🛑🛑 The Tail of the Dragon isn’t about “your skill level”, it’s about the guy “in the oncoming lane, that’s over the center line” 💯🤷‍♂️

Truth! I learned very early on not to cheat the yellow line on curves, which many tend to due because they are nervous, tense, etc.

My grandfather was a supervisor building the Blue Ridge Parkway during the depression. Having seen the roads you can imagine how dangerous it was in the 30's building the roads.

@sritchie58 2 года назад

Beautiful ride. Thank you.

@bonnevillebagger9147 2 года назад

Fyi, trail braking is more of a front brake method. It compresses the front suspension changing your geometry into a sportier/twitchy rake.

@misterpogi1352 2 года назад

It's kinda braking hard going into a curve so you go through it faster.

@user-yq3yp9gy6q 2 года назад

Great content. I appreciate the work this takes 👍

@adamabel4822 2 года назад

Thank you for sharing this video! I rode down from northeast Wisconsin by myself and slayed the Dragon 2yrs ago. I've got a picture of my bike, at that very overlook, where you stopped at before getting to the Dragon. Your video brought back so many great memories from my trip. The beauty is just incredible! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I can't wait to get back and explore that area again. Keep your knees in the breeze, enjoy the ride. And remember, not all who wander, are lost.

@USAonHarley 2 года назад

OMG... !! BRP and Tail of the Dragon.... We are in love with the area... we spent 2 months during the "Lockdown" in 2020 at the beginning of our cross-country trip and we fell in love instantly... so jealous of your trip!! :) hope to be there soon on vacation... Thanks for sharing...

@raygeraghty6670 2 года назад

Congrats and happy anniversary. Great video as always. Did that ride last year..on my 2020 HD TriGlide trike. Yes you need to take one for a spin,you would love all the storage space. What camera do you use to get those Airial view shots? Almost look like they are from drone.

@claudeac2610 2 года назад

Cool video. A word of caution: when you described how you do trail braking you indicated that you do it with the rear brakes. Trail braking has to do with going against the old philosophy of never using your front brakes in a turn. Trail braking has to do with using your front brakes well before the turn (to get the weight shifted forward onto the front wheel while you are upright) and then "trail off" the pressure as you are in the turn. It's the sudden weight shift forward that happens when you brake hard ONCE IN the turn that causes loss of traction and wipe outs. MC Rider and Canyon Chasers explains this very well

@just_another_Joe 2 года назад

I rode both the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Tail of the Dragon first time in September. Great roads. Getting to the Dragon early is a must. I rode from the north end on a Saturday and arrived at Deals Gap about 8:30 AM, and no one in front or behind me the whole trip in. Spent about an hour at the resort, then headed back. By that time, got trapped behind a succession of vehicles going slower than I preferred. Nonetheless, still enjoyed it and at least got the unimpeded southerly trip in. I’m not a speed-demon by any stretch, but it was nice to run it at my pace.

@03ssrider 2 года назад

I felt the same way about that area when my wife and I went back in 2016. I want to go back so bad! Great video! Keep up the good work and stay safe.

@MRMRS2wheeler 2 года назад

Great video. I remember my first time on BRP, the Dragon & the Cherohala skyway, me and Mrs 2wheeler could not stop saying "WOW". I posted a video series called "twists of the mountains". It really is a magical place. We still go back every so often to do some riding there. A great place to stay (though not the cheapest) is Fontana Village Resort, they have regular hotel rooms with a deck looking out to the mountains & cottages, and a good restaurants. Our favorite was Mountainview Bistro. Great view of the mountains as you enjoy dinner. BIG congrats on 2 years. RIde safe.

@BoringFisherman 2 года назад

About your feet going numb, have you considered lower fairings? I ride my vtx with just a crash bar for a long time and definitely had the "cold feet" and then I got my electra glide with lower fairings. And they help a ton especially in the cooler weather. And they even have little glove boxes (can also get them with speakers) with as much as you ride I think you should try a set. They mount on the crash bar and are really easy to take off when its warmer weather. Also tail of the dragon is on my bucket list! Keep up the good work. And happy 2 years.

@greggrunert7219 2 года назад

Rode the Tail with my wife on the back. Scared the he'll out of her on all of the hairpin turns. Never went over the speed limit. Stayed within my capabilities and made it without a scratch. Still there are better rides in the Smokies. Love the video (mine didn't turn out so well).

@joebarnett683 2 года назад

Jess it is a lot cheaper to live in Tennessee. The Dragon is a great road during the week when you can ride it with little traffic. It is crazy on the weekends.

@CrimsonAnjel 2 года назад

My mom and I drove (not rode) the Tail of the Dragon once and it was so beautiful. It's definitely a treat to see it from a bike, even if it is on camera. I hope to do rides like that some day, but until then, watching motovloggers is as good as it gets. Thanks for sharing your experience with us. Keep riding safe 🤘😆

Maybe next time you plan a trip down to East Tennessee give a heads up and some of us will get together and show you a few more wonderful roads to ride down here and a truly amazing waterfall “ Bald river falls” is amazing! Love your video’s keep up the hard work.

You have to catch Maggie’s Valley when in that part of the world. Tale of the Dragon is one of the must do’s.

Jess, North Carolina is beautiful. I live here but you made the Dragon more beautiful with your ride. Thank you.

I’ve Road that road many times and it’s always beautiful, especially spring and fall. Fall is very special with the leaves changing colors.

Best time to do the Dragon is in the fall (or spring) after the crowds have gone; and do it mid-week. Even so you get the road racers who can do some serious damage to themselves and you. The day before I rode it a guy on 2 wheels blew a corner and centerpunched an older couple head on. He didn't survive and the older couple were in shock, something they will never forget. One MUST respect that road and ride it well and aware of others and yourself. For me it's a one and done road. Glad I did it but no need to risk another ride on it for all the reasons you experienced on your ride.

Gotta admit your traveling adventures and motorbike are right up my ally. I own the same bike, I’ve ridden those beautiful roads, I’ve experienced that bliss. If you’re on the right track, then so am I. Happy Trails and Safe Travels. 👍🏼 😎 🇺🇸 🌎

I used to live in Tn and ran that so many times. I love that ride but there are so many fantastic rides in the area. I have been on the Dragon in the rain while pulling my trailer with the Goldwing. It gets more hype than it deserves. If ridden sanely it is just fun, if they attack that mountain with the wrong attitude, as you witnessed it will bite you. Thanks for taking us along and congrats on the channel anniversary. Oh it is so different on the weekend. It is ten times as busy. Be safe, have fun.

Would I be wrong in saying this video wasn't long enough? I could've watch another half hour and still be wanting more. One of your best yet. Thank you for sharing.

unfortunately I lost probably 50% of my content. I was filming in 4k and I think my memory card had compatibility issues =(

The roads of the Eastern Seaboard Mountains are high on my Bucket List , thanks for the glimpse of the beautiful vistas that wait for me. If you move to NC I wouldn’t blame you for wanting to be closer to those roads and views.
