Looks interesting. I'm certain the speed limit is way to low. I've seen some crazy a$$ roads riding with my dad out in California.

I've done the dragon several times and there are other roads in Carolina, North Georgia, Pennsylvania and California that offer more driving challenges and thrills.

That being said the dragon squeezes more action in less space. It's like a dozen or more autocrosses in a row. Too bad it has become very crowded. Ten years ago or so, not so.

I don't know how much fun the Dragon would be in V, but it sure is a blast on a bike! Throw in a big fog bank and you will be on the edge of your seat for sure. Be sure to get lots of pic's while your down at the beach bro!

I've been wanting to hit the dragon for a while. A friend of mine went there on his bike and had a blast. Its kind of a mecca for sport bikes. Maybe I'll get another one, or just do some suspension work and have my fun in the stang lol.

+1, I have been on the dragon with a friend in a cruise (I didn't drive) it is a very dangerous road but very fun to drive on and scenic!

Glad you had a good time in our neck of the woods. There are definitely some sick roads in the NC mountains. Hope Mustang Week was a blast as well.

Here is 1 of my runs from today, recorded on my Panasonic DMC-FZ28 Camera being held by the head rest.
