Road trip from Radcliff to the Tail of the Dragon in TN/NC. The tail of the Dragon is a stretch of winding road 36mi long. This road is infamous. I want to slay the dragon! I plan to take this trip with absoluteprelude.com and my wife Rachel. It should be a great time. Most of the prelude people are going to be at a nearby camp ground. I think we are going to stay at a hotel though. I hope my wife wants to go.
