- What a fast and exciting run! Old men on baggers dragging floorboards! Woot!
This is the Southern half of Moonshiner's 28 from Almond, NC down through Bryson (sort of) and into Franklin, plus a little of Wayah Rd. Man

Thanks for showing the map. So often people post beautiful rides and you have no idea where they were!
By accident I ended up catching 28 in Franklin Wednesday night on my way to Robinsonville in the total darkness. That was my first time on the road and thank heavens for the Aux. lights on my Pan America. It was nice to see what I missed in the darkness. I did get it all on video though and will be posting it soon.
That must’ve been an experience! Can’t imagine that at night!
That seven mile section of Moonshiner 28 is my favorite road. I like it better than the Dragon. I've been a FTR owner for three weeks now and can't wait to take it to the Moonshiner.
Awesome ride ... I'd be white knuckling it most all of the way ;-)
Moonshiner's is so much fun! I've ridden it twice, and I'm so wanting to go again watching this. I love it! I also rode Wayah Rd with my boyfriend. It was my most memorable ride. For one thing, there was sand on the road and my bike slipped a couple of times. Then my boyfriend pulled to the side to go explore a creek, so of course I followed him. All of a sudden something began stinging me and I then discovered the hornets. I was stung about 15 times and my boyfriend was hit several times trying to get them off me. The rocks were slick and we slid down into the water attempting to move fast. There we were covered in mud. When we got into Robbinsville, we discovered there were no medical facilities at all. In fact, the county is dry and I couldn't even get a beer to ease the pain. We stopped at a Wendy's and the people were nice and got me a bowl of ice water to soak my hands. There was a nurse there, so she was bathing me down in Benadryl while her husband got a tool to cut my ring off my swollen finger. We got a hotel and stayed the night because my hands were too swollen to ride any farther. This is something to keep in mind if you should decide to stop on the side of Wayah Road to explore the creeks up close.
great video
mucho mundo grassy ass my friend!
That was fun! The music level was just fine.
You seemed pretty relaxed on what looked like some really nice sweepers.
To me that ride looked more relaxing than the dragon.
It’s a far better road than the dragon. I hate the dragon.
Scott Riverwood it’s personal preference for me. 1) too many riders (and cars for that matter). We once had a mini-van with some kids in it roll over just in front of us, everyone was ok. 2) road condition 3) to me it’s more of a roller coaster and less of road, a lot of work.
I love the dragon. He rides the dragon for me now ✌️🏍️😎
Awesome scenery, specially during these times that riding is basically out of the question, stay safe and healthy.
This is a better ride than the Dragon in my opinion. Not nearly as much traffic when I’ve been on it. The turns are a lot sharper than they look on this video.
I hate the dragon, I’m more of a Cherohala kinda guy, big sweepers. Yeah Needles is for sight seeing, scenery, Dragon is a workout and a true test of your skills if you want it to be.
Music wasn't even necessary. The sound of the pipes and the wind was all the music one needs.
well thank you for the compliment. I have to admit I kind of agree with you but to be honest witht his much riding it does get kind of monotonous after awhile and the music helps some people enjoy it more. Thanks for watching! Really appreciate your comments!
Found your videos by accident. I grew up at the bottom of the foothills of the Smokies. Absolutely love your videos and enjoy watching them. We moved to Sarasota Florida 12 years ago and try to go back twice a year to ride the mountains. Please keep your videos coming they are very informative and very appreciated. Ride safe rubber side down.
Also check out our riding group. It's called West Coast Florida Riders
you bet man! thanks for watching!
Have ridden 28 from 74 up to Deals Gap bun never rode from 74 south. After watching this i can see what I will be doing next time down. Enjoyed the video very much. Thanks for taking us along. P.s. I heard those floorboards..😉
Yeah the northern side heading up to DG is a little more scenic with the tall trees etc but you should do the section down to Franklin and Wayah Rd for sure. Thanks for watching!
Cherokee County NC!! Land of my people! Stop in at Cherokee County Cycles.
hopefully be back up there this summer
thats exactly why i ride '15 road glide
We've been on the Tail of the Dragon, Cherohala Skyway and others in that area but didn't get to ride Moonshiner's 28. That entire area is beautiful!
Indeed! There’s so much riding in that area!
That Andrews/Murphy valley is gorgeous!!
Got to ride Moonshiners 28 and tail of the dragon last July. Hopefully plan on going back and ride the skyway in June. Thanks for the videos.
The Cherohala is my favorite...and 60 down to Suches. I’m dying to hit the new Foothills parkway also. 441 from Cherokee to Gatlinburg is also epic.
Great video. I'm so glad you found this video. Not getting much ride time with all the overtime and what's going on out there. This really does help thanks.
Great video, nothing better than good roads with great friends, thanks for sharing,
That was nice. I caught myself leaning in the curves!
Awesome twisties.....thanks for the ride
You bet Rick! Anytime! Check out some of our other ride videos too!
Years ago I stumbled on Moonshiner28,I didnt know anything about that road before,but after I was amazed how fun it was! Gonna go back soon.
There are soooo many great roads up there! It’s a playground for motorcycle riders!
@@TwoIndians Right on,I will be making a weekend trip up there soon.Nice work on the VLOGS,yall are truely blessed!
All the roads you mentioned are within 1-1/2 hour from my home
You are a lucky man! Either that or cursed with the knowledge that you can’t find better roads anywhere else!
This year , Definitely Moonshiners! Take care. :)
You’ll love it! Both north and south sections, don’t quit til you get to Franklin. 😁👍
Hey Brian, I loved riding Wayah Road. It was on that road that as I was riding I came upon a turkey in the road. As I approached, it took off flying down the middle of the road about handle bar high. I actually road about 1/10th of a mile with it where I could have reached out and grabbed it out of the air. Epic ride during the fall.
Oh now that’s a great story! Awesome!
I'll just sit here and patiently wait...
No hurry..
:'(
One of the best section of N28 :)
Love that route. My riding partner and I road it last June. Favorite ride in the Smokies
Looks an awesome ride! Can't wait until this whole stay at home thing is over to enjoy some nice rides like this now that I am retired. Been doing local rides in central Ohio as weather permits. I enjoy your channel, keep the videos coming.
I love that ride in a car. Haven't brought my bike up there yet... I need to just buy a trailer to bring my bike next time visiting my family in Franklin
I love getting up there from GA too. Great roads all across the area without getting bogged down in the Tail of Dragon traffic. Nice riding on the big cruiser
You have some great skills, you would think you were from TN. not Fla. We don't often see riders from Fla that could keep up with the guys around here. Everytime we ride the runs are like that. Just like practicing in a parking lot, it makes you better. Be safe
Wow thanks for the compliment and thanks for watching!
What camera are you using, Beautiful ride!!!!
That’s a GoPro Hero7. Recorded at 2.7k exported at 1080 cuz the folks at UA-cam hate fast moving video and giant files. Hehehe
The 28 down from deals gap towards Bryson City is my favorite ride. Down by the Fontana lake and the Dam.
This video concentrates on the southern end of that ride, which was stellar. Most people have done that section you’re referring to however a lot of people don’t make it down to the Franklin area and Wayah Rd. Thanks for watching!
I love it. Reminds me of so many awesome places with all the twisties.. Loved you scrapping the floorboards too. Now, I know why you stopped so you could film your friends, but I prefer the front so I don't have to slow down for them. I like to ride my own line and not have to keep hitting the brake bc they are not sure on how to take the next curve. Now, not so sure about the skateboard thing but I am a lot older than you so maybe you would like that. LOL oh, also thank you for flashing those beautiful shots of Ms B. ;-) 2 thumps up.
Looking forward to when the corona stuff is over so we can start planning our trips
What are you using for your camera setup? On and off bike look awesome.
That is a Hero8
What 3/4 helmet is that you're wearing? Looks great!
That actually an Indian branded Helmet
All this is about an hour from my home
You are a lucky man!
The bgm was too loud I think. Except for that this is an excellent video 👍
Thanks! Appreciate the compliment. A suggestion, you could turn the volume down on your speakers....
@@TwoIndians I had the phone volume down enough 5o hear u speak. Even after that the by was annoying. There were few area where I heard the engine rev. That was gold🤩🤩🤩
Sure need to cut back on the music.. to loud, good stuff.. but to loud.
Shoot me a link to your channel or one of your videos so I can see the right way to do it.
Using awful lot of lane there be cateful
