200 miles for a free hot dog

Ed and I made a night run to get our free hot dogs in Robinsville NC.

Usually we go through the Dragon, then the Robinsville station, Cherohala Skyway, Tellico Plains, them home.

Since the rock slide blocks Highway 129 into the Dragon, we had go in through Tellico Plains, and back the same way.

The trip was 102.5 miles one way from my house.
When we got above the 4000 ft. elevation it got in the mid 30 degree weather.

Just a great night to get out and ride.

The Dragon is fun, but the Cherohala Skyway is very nice.
