Finally got to go...what a hoot! 11 miles, 318 turns, mostly banked very well, and a blast to drive! Photos from Killboy.com and Moonshinephoto.com of the red Miata with the old guy and his gorgeous spouse aboard both 10-10 and 10-11. Neal Bellamy met up with me there on the eleventh, driving his 06 Civic...fun stuff! This road was designed with Miatas in mind...long before Miata came into existance...:burnrubr: :drive:
Congrats!Quote:

Sounds like you guys had a blast and a safe time to boot! Where did you stay at up there? I stayed overnight in Alcoa, TN, at the Hampton Inn.
We need to do a 3 day weekend trip up there as a group.

Congrats! Sounds like fun...
Actually, I took my spouse since we had not been to the Smoky's for 12 years or so, (since before moving to Texas in 95) and we stayed at a Ramada in Pigeon Forge...What a change THAT place has seen over the years!
Anytime anyone wants to head that way, just let me know and I will definitely meet you there. There are guys from Central KY who go down there once per month on average, weather permitting, during the autox off-season. I may go back in a couple of weeks...:drive:
I was up in OzCop's backyard this weekend at the Natural Bridge National Park. The roads in the mountains east of Lexington are no slouch.
:drive:
Heck, they aren't too bad south of Lexington either... Just getting to my house (which is so far out in the sticks, I call it two miles from Deliverance) is an exercise in Miata enjoyment. Not so much in my truck, or the spouse's Pilot, but a blast in the Miata... :drive:
