Welcome and congrats on the new steed.
Welcome and congrat ! You 've nice curves in your areaJust picked up my 2018 939 S. Put about 120 miles on it and love it on these Blue Ridge Mountain roads. Can't
wait to bread it in so I can see if there is enough power for my taste. This is my 1st Ducati so thanks in advance for the help I will be needing.
Welcome to the fold. Where in NC are you? Piedmont, mountains? Are you a 73' driver out of CLT by any chance? :wink2:Just picked up my 2018 939 S. Put about 120 miles on it and love it on these Blue Ridge Mountain roads. Can't

Ah, yes. Sentimental. My '854' handle has been my race number for 21 years because it was the tail number of my helicopter in Vietnam...a lucky number for sure. :grin2:Actually B777 out of Houston but B737 for 30+ years. Commute to Boone area in the Summer.
I ride The Snake quite a bit and actually prefer it to the Dragon. But I ride it on weekdays where I have never seen a cop and most of the time never encounter a car or truck. Keep going into Bristol about 8 miles. It will be a 4 lane and then back into a 2 lane. At the bottom of the hill on the left is a great burger and shake joint while you rest your ass! Or take a right at Shady Valley and the ride to Damascus. Not sure where you are starting from but from there HW58/194 over to Jefferson is a great one too.Good to see another SS in NC. My brother and I have ridden the blueridge on our monsters and the supersports. Lots of fun. Going to head up to "The Snake" (421) right outside of NC in TN next weekend.
I'm gonna need more info on this Snake. I know the Dragon well, being from the area, but I've not heard of the Snake.I ride The Snake quite a bit and actually prefer it to the Dragon.
