The Dragon can be hit or miss as far as traffic and police presence is concerned, even on the weekends. I was up there a few weeks ago on a Sunday afternoon, and the place was virtually deserted. Don't forget to look up your photos on Killboy, 129 Slayer, etc. If you were not aware, they take photos of everything, then post them up for purchase. Here are a few of my recent trip.

The thing is Bob, it's not that I'm lazy, it's that I just don't care.

I hate to admit it, we did the tourist thing and bought a Dragon pic too.

Great reading about your trip Bill. It's a wonderful area to ride.
Can't wait to head down again in Sept.

I hate that I missed this thread before your trip was over but it sounds like you had a whole lot of fun.

Next time you really need to check out www.wheelsthroughtime.com.

It's a motorcycle museum that is only about 30 minutes from where you took the pics at the start of the Dragon. One guy owns the entire collection of around 300 vintage american motorcycles. I realize of course that we are fans of Triumphs but the I can appreciate a nice bike. Check out the web page for the museum. It is VERY cool and everything in the museum runs..yes everything! The owner, Dale Walksler hangs around and just starts bikes that people are looking at. I saw him do burnouts down the center of the museum floor on a 1905 Excelsior. It was nuts.

Yep, the Dragon can be addictive. I am in a Mustang club and we took 75 Mustangs over the Dragon at one time back in the spring on a benifit ride for the Wounded Warrior Project.

Glad you enjoyed the trip.

Wheels through Time was in the tentative plans, but somehow got forgotten when I was actually out on the bike.....

I looked at the pics, but haven't bought/downloaded any yet.
I have some ride pics from other places, and these looked good, but I'm waiting for my "technical editor" to return from Australia for more input.
