Tail of the Dragon (Page 1/2)

Been a while since I rode it. It was definitely worth the trips I've made there.

Saw this Pic on FB and just had to share it. If you haven't been on the Tail of the Dragon, you are missing out on a fun road.

I have seen too many pics of guys on the wrong side of the road or completely off the road.

If that pick is real, it looks like rush hour in Denver.

I will stick to our open roads.

I would love to drive it, BUT BUT BUT NOT in traffic like that. No way.

I'm sure Blackrams has seen them, but for others, just do an image search for "tail of the dragon crash pics"

I know, I have seen them. Isn't there also a monument of broken crashed parts too?

I've been on the Dragon several times, there are sometimes crazy people there.

Rams, I don't think that picture is anywhere on the Dragon.....

A Google search suggests that it is in Iran.

Yeh, maybe in the summer

Went to town for smokes on the scooter today and I had forgotten JUST how nut-unconfutable cold weather riding is, bad enough on the electric thing, never mind a gas bike. Also re-learned all those dirt road potholes hurt twice as much in these temperatures, and batteries dont last for sheet in 2 degrees.

You should call that road "Tail of the Beaver".
