Great video with awesome roads, glad you had a good time and ride.
Thanks for sharing
Barbara rode the Dragon on that huge Indian full dresser touring bike! Very Impressive! And Sammy only 6 months riding experience and riding the Dragon! WOW! 😎 Great Job
Another great video, been in the Tennessee/ North Carolina area a few times. Gorgeous. Amen on the final thoughts, time is the thing everyone thinks they have plenty of, truth is it’s the least. Peace.
Two thumbs up!👍👍
That is awesome! You guys enjoy!
YO!!! This is Buck Brown, (formerly South Georgia Indian Rider) due to a serious malfunction I’ve had to start all over as all my previous information was completely lost
Hey Buck! How ya been?
Came across this video and decided to watch.. nice views. I will be moving back to TN from CA in a few years and will be going to east TN as I lived in Memphis for 14 years and grew up in FL. Can’t wait to get back to where it is green all year round.
Oh that’s awesome! I love California but def would not want to live there, for multiple reasons. Check out our other videos on riding in the Smoky Mountain areas and Georgia. Not to mention the Black Hills and CO. Thanks for watching!
You are right Brian. I say the same thing . People always say someday. I tell them , do it now!
Well said Brian, great video!
I just finished riding the Dragon, Cherohala, and Moonshiners 28 for the first time. It’s amazing out here!
Awesome! We just went up to HIghlands last weekend and the video goes live on Friday. Thanks for watching!
Lake chill- how -wee... the main thing on the dragon is: survive it brother. A lot of people don’t. Count yourself fortunate!! I live in maryville and I’ve done the dragon but i hear the death stories all the time..
That was a great vid guys.
We live 1 hour from The Dragon and I've ridden it since before it had a name. I'm over it now, sadly though it's a good cut through to many other riding places. Cherohala is also up there with The Byway and Newfound Gap for us.
Yeah the Dragon is a necessary evil, would love to see a scenic bypass created that gives us some long sweepers up to Foothills Pkwy
Tail of the Dragon is on my list!
Check out my other videos my dude. The Cherohala is the best.
Looks like a great trip! I totally agree about the Dragon. I have no desire at all. I like being able to see things when I ride. And relax. Not curve after curve and only trees.
Just got home from the smokies...3000 mile trip on the bike...roads are amazing there but tricky with elevation changes and blind corners...have fun and enjoy!
Great video, camera and wise words! Thanks!
Another excellent video.
Thank you my friend👍❣️
Nailed it again B n B.. we loved it. And the very wise words at the end i spill myself to many people. Words to live by .
Cheers from down under. J n D #doinadigby
Wow what a great ride. We will doing a big Hog Chapter Ride in that area next month. Can not wait!
Great advice on living while you can. Good ride footage!
Agree on Tail of Dragon others make it dangerous Do not remember name but road leading to Dragon was far more fun when I was there but everyone should try it once
Great view of your bars with no windshield.
thats how I ride around town usually. Bad ass mode engaged...LOL
Sexy right?
Oh you know it.
I thought maybe you were already in position getting ready to make your next video on long-term reviews of the bigger bars.
I can't wait to get in badass mode on MY bike.
Brian, those are most excellent closing comments. We all only go around once. Up in those hills, they have a name for Northerners, who moved to Florida, and then moved to those mountains. They call 'em "halfbacks;" the implication being, they moved halfway back to their starting point. It is not a derogatory term, and is often used in jest. I suggest, (and aspire to) live up there for half the year, and live the other half down is S. Fla. While they are nice to their visitors, they are very clannish, and being accepted on a full time basis is another issue. If I ever make the move, I'll move into a neighborhood of halfbacks.
Everyone up there is from FL it seems. Yeah we’d love to retire up there.
That whole area is my favorite riding destination on the east coast, I try to get down there at least once per year. I usually stay in Maggie Valley, NC. Nice video too, your production values are making me jealous!
Thanks for the compliment! tell your friends, Hahaha, i'll look at your channel...
every road is beautiful to ride as long you got a good action camera you set to go ❤ thank you for shareing 👌🏻Sir
Nice job on the closing thoughts! Haven’t been out as much this year ... given the circumstances (crazy year: 2020!!)
Great camera shots on some beautiful roads. Thank for your closing thoughts and for sharing it with us.
Nice video; beautiful area! I live in the great state of NC (Piedmont area), and your comments about the roads in NC are spot on; state wide. Love these curvy scenic roads!! Thanks for the mention of Thundering through the Smokies; will check out your info.
Epic ride. I soooo look forward to getting out there someday. 😀😀👍
I could’ve made a one hour video with this footage
Love your wisdom brother. Another great vid. I’ve watched several of your vids late in to last night which is why I am exhausted this morning (thanks for that buddy!!). Shutting this off and taking your advice. Pulling the Harley out of the garage in a few and going riding. Be safe and all the best to you and Barbara.
wow man thanks so much for the kind words! I really appreciate your comments !
Great journey, thanks for taking us along
Great view some day plan on getting down that way those three roads are on bucket list
My dream ! And it may materialize soon ! Finally, Retired ! At 63, and single, don't have lot, of money, but I have a nice Harley,,,just enough. To live In a clean 1br apt. 😁👍😇🙏💕✝️💕💕🙏
Dude, that’s a dream for us all. Go tear it up and report back!
Great vid!!
Thanks! We have a bunch more from that area in our library, be sure to check them out
I have ridden the tail of the dragon and also the moonshiners 28.... I agree with you I'm glad I did it but I don't care to do it again it is okay if you ride a sports bike but I ride a cruiser like you do and it's just not our bag. Ride safe my friend .
Thought it was time for a new twoindians video!
Great video with high quality video.
Thanks! Check out our other travel and ride videos too!
Although the night while traveling to it there was many foggy spots but it was still a great experience, once we got where we were staying we stood at the end of the drive way and off in the distance you could see a streak of lights going up the side of the mountain. There was a spot with a tall tree trunk that i would stand on top of in the middle of the night and you could look down and see the town all lit up. I didnt wanna leave😂 ive seen a few really pretty spots but the smoky mountains is definitely a place you should go if youve never been
I am glad UA-cam suggested your Channel. Am a fan of both of you since the first one. God Bless!! Keep going... superb camera work and editing, Brian ✌will really appreciate if you can post GPX files of your rides
In many cases I have posted links to the routes but I admit sometimes I get lazy. Thanks so much for watching and I’m glad you found it too! Please tell your friends or share a video somewhere. Thanks again!
Great job Brian...Fantastic footage and commentary...
I watch your videos for entertainment. This time it was more about inspiration. I get what you say about living life and having no regrets. Awesome ride!
Thank you so much for the compliment !
Some beautiful views man. I need to get out that way. Moonshiners looked so nice.
It would be worthwhile but I’m well aware of the time commitment. I want to get over to you for the PCH and all the great west coast rides but it’s so far.
Great video beautiful roads
Thanks!
Two!!
Whata great video.
The 116 is a MONSTER, I have the stock 116 with stage 2 cams she is a gnarly girl.
I’m getting mine tuned tomorrow and will get the results out on a video soon! Thanks for watching!
ridewithtwoindians please reveal the numbers in the video, mine should be slightly higher than urs lol. Or at least I hope so since is the new 116 with the high air flow cylinder heads. So yours got the indian tune? But you also gonna dyno tune it?
Awesome video. We absolutely love that area as well. So unbelievably beautiful. I sure hope we all cross paths one day - would love to meet and ride with y’all. ~ Treca aka The Squaw 😊
Would love that! Always happy to meet up when we can!
Once again you knocked it out of the park Brian. Great video and love the Smokies. Being from Indiana, that was our spot to hit. Though at the time I didn't have a bike. So we would come down to go hiking all the trails. It's definitely one of the best places to tour . Our Indian Riders group is planning on going on the end of Aug for 10 days, can't wait for it. Glad you two were able to make it up there.
Good advice
Looks like a blast! I rode from Augusta GA to Destin last week. Had a blast doing videos and fighting rain, but that was better than dealing with the tourists there. I enjoy your vids. Thanks for having us along.
The rain can be the worst. I do not like to ride in rain
Beautiful roads there, I would love to ride through there when I'm next in the U.S.
You definitely want to ride it on a better bike though. It’s all curves and that bike looks like it can lean about 15 degrees. That would ruin the experience.
I really enjoyed the video. My brother and I did the same circle, you've done here, on Memorial Day weekend. It was my first time to this area. New subscriber here 😀
Thanks!!
Great video Brian. Loved your closing comments, I have recently taken that attitude hence loving what your posting and set to go once I can get to the US and overseas flights resume. Take it easy mate and can't wait for the next vid
Thanks ! Got several vids in the works...
We took a week vacation and i remember as soon as we pulled into the parking lot of the house we were staying in we were greeted with a baby bear and the whole time it was beautiful weather i dont think it rained even the slightest nor was it foggy
That sounds amazing.
I saw a actual video I almost dropped my phone !!! I love it I’ll make it up there sometime before the season is gone . I like your closing comments , well said . The first time I went threw that area was 97 and I never knew the name of the lake until today . Thanks Brian . Looking forward to the next video hopefully I’ll see them before Christmas 😂😂 LOL !! Be safe ✌🏼😬
He has several in the works. Work and life got in the way✌️🏍️😎
I know , I just love teasing him . I still love the way he edits it all together. the videos are always something to look forward too. Stay safe , I heard the COVID virus has started be up in Fla. at the bars again . So watch out . Later 😷👍
Thanks for watching Steve!
That was some really beautiful scenery. Next time make sure you get more shots of the motorcycles parked and going down the road. We didn’t even get a shot of your friends BMW. That long sweeper with the camera on your saddle bag was outstanding.😎👍🏻
Thank you for the kind words. It’s so hard to get every shot, I almost always get home and think “ oh crap, I should’ve shot this or that”.
Im on vacation in SC. The smokies are beautiful with sweeping turns, waterfalls etc. Tennessee/North Carolina was the most beautiful. The Dragon isnt for me and doesn't do anything for me. Rather have smooth sweeping roads with waterfalls and signs that say "Falling Rocks" 👍
Amen brother
Dude we was up that june 17 to21 we stayed in pigeon forge in cabin then stay night over in Bryson city NC.
Missed ya by a week!
I liked what you said about you never no what might come. I was thinking of cancelling my trip to Sturgis in September but now I and leaning on going because you never know what life will bring. I am going to seize the moment and go. Thanks for the inspirational videos.
Thanks Curtis, that means the work to me.
Take the adventure ✌️😎🏍️
Brian have enjoyed your videos seeing I have a Springfield as well. Just wondering what do use for communicating between #1 and yourself?
Prayer. Hahaha, oh you mean Barbara? LOL. We use the Sena units. She has a few different ones but the 20 is her most frequent and I have 30’s on a couple different helmets. Honest they’re fine but could be better. I’d switch to Cardo because everyone raves about them but we have too many of the Sena’s.
What exhaust would you recommend for the Indian scout bobber?
Depends on what kind of sound you like. My preference is the Vance & Hines slash cuts.
Grooms are 125cc that you can do big bore kit make 150cc I think
Shows you how much I know about these things. The engines look so tiny!
Hey Brian, Im a new rider and would love to plan a trip like that. Is there any way to get any info on where to stay and the routes you guys took.
Hey George! You caught me editing so i saw your comment pop up. If you go back and look at some of our early videos from like a year before I do show some of the routes on maps but you'll have to pause the video to see exactly where they are. The major ones are easy to find with Google and theyre all in the same area. #1 Cherohala Skyway (take the detour to Bald River Falls), #2 Foothills Parkway, # 3 441 from Gatlinburg to Cherokee, #4Moonshiner 28 from Deal's Gap all the way to Franklin NC. Honrable mentions are Fighting Creek Gap Road, and Wayah Rd. Blue Ridge Parkway of course. Stellar. Stay in Robbinsville which is central to it all but if you Stay in Murphy or nearby you can hit just about anything from there. Stop in Bryson City for lunch. You really wanna have fun run on GA 60 from McCayesville through Suches down towards Helen. Amazinfgriding. I have video on most of these. We also love staying in Highlands NC, very boujie as the kids say but the riding around there is also superior. you can't go wrong anywhere up in that area. Where you from? Follow us on FB and IG too!
@@TwoIndians From NY. My girl and I ride and we love the quiet backwoods scenic stuff. Not much into the full throttle thing.Looks like a beautiful area. thanks for the tips. I will look at some of the older videos and see about mapping something out. thanks. I will check you on FB
Yeah that’s us, chill on the back roads. I will rip it up a bit with the boys but not too bad. Look at our video from the Highlands
Your only here the once don't take life too serious no one gets out alive, get out and ride them roads.
That is pronounced chill how we
I doubt you floridians can handle the ice they get there.
If it it comes in a cup with whiskey I can handle it. 😃
