Do want to drive the Cherohala too. But I believe that's a bit longer day trip.
Just looked at map, my sister's place is up in Tellico Village, so running down to Tellico Plains and taking the Skyway over to 129 and back via the Tail would be nice, full day trip. Skyway looks a lot like Blue Ridge Pkwy. The Tail was just one nasty curve after another with no berms, just ditches and trees. And bikes

Go in the spring, after snow & ice is gone, but still too cold for motorcycles.
