I couldn't wait! I had to get in a little practice!
I couldn't wait! I had to get in a little practice!
So, we went up to Asheville yesterday, with the thought that we might run the Dragon early this morning, but after realizing it was a good hour and half from Asheville, we decided to hit the Blue Ridge Parkway in Asheville. We rode it all the way to Boone, and made a detour up to the top of Mt. Mitchell, the highest point east of the Mississippi at 6684 feet. Full of sweet twisties, and since we left early this morning, we had most of the parkway to ourselves! It was good to enjoy some spirited driving before next weekend. Also, it was my first time taking the MINI through it's paces. It stuck to the road like glue, and in practice for the Dragon, I never crossed the yellow line! Twas fun, twas fun, but it was disappointing not seeing any other MINIs out today. I guess everyone's gearing up for the Dragon...
The second picture is at the top of Mt. Mitchell, where it was a cool 35 degrees, and visibility was like 5 feet. The clouds were blowing by horizontally....
