Yes, the route planning and the ride there is a big part of it and I admit my share of past ridicule aimed at drivers pulling tour capable motorcycles. However I've ridden from my home to the Smokies two or three times a year for 18 years. If you want a few routes going that way let me know.I couldn't do it myself... that 'going to' and 'coming from' part of the trip is as much of the enjoyment as the riding at the destination...
Plus, I hate driving any non motorcycle vehicle for more that 3 hours... I'm sure if there were at least 2 people in the vehicle it would make more sense or be less boring but just me driving... yuk...
