Fort Mtn.
Went up Fort Mtn in GA today and around Carters Lake. 52 through the mtn is a blast. Much nicer road than deals gap to me. My camera mount of course showed up in the mail today when I got back.. But in two weeks I will be headed to maggie valley for a saturday and I should be able to get some video.
Only pic I took (and with my cell phone none the less.. I'm always afraid to bring my canon on the bike.. Dont want to have a get off and break a thousand dollar camera and more in glass.
Yellow bike is my buddies CBR929RR, and the wheel in the left of the pic is his dads Valkyrie... That we left behind an awful lot

I like blood mtn but we didn't want to go quite that far out today. And I hate the loop that most people run. Wolf Pen Gap scares the **** out of me.. its so narrow if your riding at a brisk pace and there is traffic coming the other way it could hurt. Road is too narrow for my liking

New to the forums here and should be picking up a Hawk on Saturday, I live in Chattanooga and have been know to blaze through Fort on occasion. We need to hookup sometime and ride up through Reliance/Greasy Creek and SKyway sometime.

I'd love to meet up some time.. Might not get a chance this year though. Its already getting a little cold for me.. to think I used to ride in NY with snow on the ground. now it gets below 60 and I'm going F that of course in NY all my leathers were solid and I wore thermals underneath.. now I have perforated leathers and wicking under armor
Edit... Looking at the maps I know now why I don't like wolf pen gap road... I've apparently never been there, when I was out that way I made a wrong turn at Albuquerque and wound up on Wolf Creek Road... which is barely big enough for one vehicle at a time
in fact its so small its hard to follow it on google maps cause you cant see all of it through the trees. great scenic road, couple of photo op pull offs, but I wouldn't suggest booking it through there
