Yep, I know. The Reunion is in September, but our schedule this year just doesn't coincide with those dates. 
So we are going to try to make the best of it. Never been in that neck of the woods, close, but not quite. Back in 95 when I was on the 93 GL1500SE. Love those machines.
We are coming down through Springfield MO then swing down around Branson and across Southern MO using Hwy 160. Love that road. Over to Benton , KY to see family. Then Land between the Lakes, stop in Lebanon , Tn have lunch with a friend, and on to Deals Gap, by way of Smithville, Sparta, Pikeville, Dayton, Decatur and Sweetwater, ans of course, "The Dragon"for the night. That will be the first time on the Dragon as well. Looking forward to that. Going to take my time. Speed ain't my thang, just going to enjoy the turns and twisties!
Hope to be in Maggie Valley on the 11th. Then get the hotel settled and plan the day rides. Don't really know anything about Maggie Valley and where to stay, something reasonable and clean and nice. Suggestions would be appreciated:Shrug:!
After we made up our minds that Maggie Valley was to our hub of travel for the week, I started looking at the area and trying to lay out rides. Now looking at "Google Maps" roads can get you into trouble as it is not easy to see WHAT kind of road it is, so some of my ideas may not be very good. We will see.
If there is someone local or knows the area, I bet they can show us the best rides in the country.
We were in Eureka Springs with the trike in 2015, the wife and my first real trike trip together and even with the rain everyday it was fantastic. So we are looking forward to this trip with smiles on our faces and dreams in our minds.
Hope to meet some of you in June.
