Up in NC! TAIL OF THE dragon 318 turns 11 miles

Up in NC! TAIL OF THE dragon 318 turns 11 miles UPDATE:** I went down**

**UPDATE I WENT DOWN**

UPDATE I WENT DOWN

Let me first start out by saying it is 68 out. NICE

Hey guys I am up here in nc for the week.. joe is still downsouth so if you need anything we got you covered! Now the reason im up here is to ride the tail of the dragon (318 turns, 11 miles), for those that dont know what it is check it out here: www.tailofthedragon.com Basically it has everything that florida doesnt have...the roads are redicilous!!!!! elevation change I love it! 180 deg. tight radious turns going up/down hill. These are one lane rds. that one side will have either a mountain wall or the other side is the edge of a cliff. Already since we have been here 2 people were airlifted. and a tractor trailer got stuck... So there is about 10 of us up here... The last time I was up here it was with my s2000 I have never rode it on the bike until this week. The local guys that ride up here are nuts!!! I think I saw one of them defy all physics today and take a sharp 90deg left turn at like 70mph and go completely flat with the ground and all you can hear was his knee dragging throughout the other turns... meanwhile I was going like 40 and i felt like i was pushing it....

Two of the guys we are with went down yesterday but not bad at all..thank god for leathers and boots!

I will have some pics that I will upload soon!

oh ya, some rules on the dragon... DONT CROSS THE YELLOW LINES! you will kill yourself and someone else.... so that means no drifting. You do cops will kill you.
