so here's what i'm thinking. i'm planning on taking a week off work, 19-23rd.

i would drive down from nyc the 17th, stay with a guy on my advrider forum that night and begin the blue ridge parkway at the beginning in waynesboro,VA on the 18th. taking 2/3 days to get there, i would end up at the dragon on the 20th. i would spend until the 23rd down in the tenn/NC/GA area and then begin the brp back up north during the afternoon of the 23rd or before noon on the 24th, sat. this all depends on if i can take that week off. it may be the week before or after but monday is madness because the 26th is memorial day. plus it will be getting a bit warm to camp.

if there is interest in a ninjette along those days (thrus&friday? maybe thurs-sat?) then post up here as i need some idea so i know how to organize.

when i'm down in the dragon area, i'm planing on staying here

it works out better if there are more people as then the cabins only cost 15-25 per person which isn't bad for a bed. especially when camping is at least 14 bucks everywhere i've looked.

apart from the dragon, i plan on seeing http://www.sixgap.com/ as well as the cherohala. would prob spend a day or two in the smokey mountain as well as other dicking around

i plan on hiking a bit depending on the weather. if your into that, awesome.

i only plan on going to the dragon on weekdays as all the locals say is it a circus on weekends with show-off and whatnot. not really feeling that risky.

comment appropriately.
