I am not riding the dragon either since I have done it 7 times already. I was going to wait at the store at the south end of the dragon for those who do ride it so we can all ride back to Blairsville together. Is there only one exxon in telico plaines, don't wanna be at the wrong one. Yes, only one Exxon station in Telico Plains..and dont blink for you will miss the town.........

DragonRider Posted August 12, 2009 Author Share #19 Posted August 12, 2009 Thats the one, but I thought it was an Exxon......maybe it changed or I just plain forgot, but it is the big one on the right about 1/2 down after you turn off 68. Eck from the picture it sure looks like an Exxon, but I cant read the signs, has the right colors............but that is the one.

stroker ace Posted August 12, 2009 Share #20 Posted August 12, 2009 I'm pretty sure that is the one. Mike and I ride that route a lot since it is in our backyard.. We will meet up with you all there also, but we're not riding the dragon either, we try and only ride it Mon. thru Thurs. early AM to avoid the crazies..... Mike has another route planned for us, not sure exactly what that is @ the moment but I'm sure he'll be happy to share it with you all when we meet up......We are looking forward to meeting everyone....
