Great video . I got rid of my Harley’s and bought a Goldwing . I lost a lot of riding buddies because of it. But that’s ok i guess they really weren’t my buddies anyway. I’m like you to me it’s about the ride. Not the biker image. Love my Goldwing. It never breaks down.

Looking into a two used GWs for the wife and I. I have been riding for almost 20 years and wife wanted to do it herself last year. Almost 6,000 miles in her first NY summer and her advanced training course I am beyond proud of her. Cross country ride is in our focus and we will be taking our daughters with us when the time comes. Adventure! That’s our ultimate goal! Be together and get lost and make it an adventure. Be safe have fun and let it be an adventure!

Thanks for sharing. Liked and subscribed. After 47 years since I started riding at the age of 14 and five years without a motorcycle, I decided that I really, really missed the freedom and thrill of traveling on two wheels. Four months of searching netted me my first non-Kawasaki, a pristine '07 BMW K1200S with only two weeks for shake=down before needing to hit the road for the April 8th solar eclipse. My wife and I loaded up and rode from South Florida to just west of Jonesboro, Arkansas, arriving only 20 minutes before totality. Another 20 minutes after the eclipse had passed and we were heading home. The bike ran perfectly. It could pass everything on the highway except a gas station. We had a wonderful ride and were able to check "experience a total eclipse" off our bucket list.

I just bought myself a new GW two days ago (my wife told me to do it), and we live just north of the TOTD in Tennessee. She said she won't ride it with me the first time I do it, but she would after I knew what it was like. I'm looking forward to heading down there for the ride. This part of the country has some of the best riding in the entire country. I'm honestly surprised that the roads weren't packed with people, but that's a VERY good thing. It's no fun when you have some mindless rider on a crotch rocket riding your bumper impatiently waiting to pass and making it unsafe for everyone. Thanks so much for sharing your ride!

Towing the bike I've done rides from Maryland to Niagara falls (Canada), Key west. Florida as far west as California. Recently the Mrs expressed that she wanted to accompany me on a trip to Louisiana. only I knew she could not physically last two days on the bike. So on the trailer the bike went. She had a blast the entire trip. Didn't wear her out. My joy is her happiness 😊

I lived only 3 hrs from the Dragon in Tennessee for 35 yrs. I have ridden the Dragon too many to count. For me and my buddies it was only a day ride there and back. I moved to Savannah last yr. and this past April I went and rode the Dragon 3 different times. Great ride but do some others while you are there. I recommend Cherohala Skyway and Moonshiner 28. Dont miss the new section of the Foothills Parkway from Wears Valley Rd. over to 321 its a great ride and the view is outrageous. Be safe, have fun.

Was on my 07 wing on the dragon and had some extremely heavy set harley rider trying to keep up, (after I had passed him) he dragged his foot board, skewered it into the asphalt and ended up in a ditch, his ego and right wrist wrote checks his ass couldn't cash. Great video please stay safe!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that's a great way to put it. His ego and right wrist wrote checks his ass couldn't cash🤣🤣. For some reason some Harley riders think that have something to prove when they see a goldwing. My rule of thumb is I don't like to ride behind them. They always try and pass me when I'm on the expressway. I just push it up to 95mph and they give up. I guess too much vibration 🤔 . Thanks for watching and the comment. Be safe.

They always try and pass me when I'm on the expressway. ..." •••••••••• That was certainly my experience while riding northbound on I-75 just south of the FL-GA border. There was a gang of about 20 riding in the center lane at about 80 mph. I was cruising at 90 in the left lane with my wife aboard my '07 BMW K1200S, on our way to see the April 8,2024 solar eclipse. As we began to overtake their convoy, I gave a friendly wave to a trike rider and their 'tail-gunner'. He rolled on in top gear and cut us off, at which time the entire formation changed lanes to block us. I down-shifted into 5th gear and dropped back, cutting through other traffic they had been blocking, and moved into the right lane. We resumed our previous cruise speed and were very soon ahead of the traffic and abeam the leader of the pack. He looked quite displeased. They tried to match our speed, but with no other traffic ahead, I dropped another gear and resumed accelerating. I short-shifted into 5th gear at 105 and continued accelerating. I short-shifted again at 115, which was faster than the gang could maintain. By this time, we were over 1/4 mile ahead and gaining distance as I returned to cruising in the left lane. I slowed to 110 and maintained that cruise speed as the gang dwindled in my mirrors. After about 20 miles, when we reached the Georgia welcome center, I exited for a break. As we were eating a snack, the trike and another bike passed by the rest stop. That was the last we saw of that unfriendly bunch.

I spend a week there in the area and in maggie valley every year and there are a ton of rides there and i also live in the mountains of VA so twisties are no stranger to me.

Ay Mo. Living here on the West coast, the Dragon is a bit far! LOL. However if and when I get to the East coast it is a possibility. Over my way we have quite a few comparable roads. Not as many turns crammed into 11 miles but still challenging. We have the Bristle Cone Pine Forrest just outside Death Valley. I counted 118 challenging twisties in 10 miles with great scenery all the way down from 11,000+ high elivation. There are other mountain passes on this side of the country also. Bottom line, it's great you got to ride the Dragon and get out on a nice bike trip with the Wife. Life is good my friend. Corventure Dave

I've been thinking of a GW lately as I am getting to a senior state of life and have some sports injuries. That bike seems to be a good performer also. You have inspired me to do the ride from MA. I want to see the Wheels Through Time museum in Magee Valley so that could make for a nice dual purpose trip. Thank you.

Great video Mo. I live in Western NY. I rode to Graceland in Memphis in 2005 with a couple of the guys I ride with. I was on my new Heritage Softail. I was dragging floorboards on every corner of the Tail of the Dragon. It was a fun time. We went back two years ago, but there were torrential downpours. We didn't feel like riding the Tail in the pouring rain. I put 92,000 miles on that bike. I rode it to California and back. I just traded it for an Electraglide so my wife could be more comfortable on our trips. Michigan is on our bucket list. Stay safe.

I lived in the U.P. of Michigan in the late 50s and early 60s. I went to school in Rudyard, Mich. and since I was a kid then I had a blast both in the snow and during summer vacation from the 3 Rs. I currently ride a Can-Am Spyder RT Limited, but I am considering getting a Gold Wing and having "Landing Gear" installed. (If you haven't heard of Landing Gear you can look it up on line. It looks great under a Gold Wing and doesn't have the look of a piece of junk hanging under your bike) I have some balance issues, but I miss the lean, to and fro of a motorcycle. I have never owned a Gold Wing, but that is on MY bucket list. TCRS: Take Care, Ride Safe.

Man riding with my wife is one of the best things I do. Only those that do it understand how close it brings you. From Atlanta it’s a short ride to Deal’s Gap. We do it on a Bonneville and yes slow and easy let’s us do it again.

Since I've been hearing others on tail of Dragon, I was wondering if old Mo an his 1800 Gold Wing had experienced ride an how technical an enjoyable he thought it was? Now here's my chance to know! I've always been a bike rider but don't put near miles on bike as you, not because not rider, but NW weather conditions where I live. on my Gold Wing or less than half of your mileage. But this year little different procrastinating bidenflation an high gas prices! I've done the tail but loved the parts dragon at store. I have a great ride for you in Washington State. Check out NW loop. I've got tire pressure loss issue in my HD Dyna customs wheels, so I've been rising GW!

A great ride in Washington. I will look into that. I up for any challenge. As far as the dragon I liked it alot. It would be nice if you could go 30mph all the time. Some of those turns can be deadly if you are not paying attention. I love the twisties but not when you have to slow down to 10mph to take a turn. So it was a good experience but there has to be better rides out there. I will check out what you are telling me. Thanks for watching and the comment
