A Vid from the Dragon
I am uploading more...this is just part of one of the three runs I did on the dragin's tail in october. check this thread for updates :D
Click here If anyone is close to Tennessee (where the Dragon is) I HIGHLY suggest running this :) this is only 6 mins. of a 55 min video ;) more to come........ |
oh man, I have heard about that stuff...
it just keeps going on like that X_X we have a road that is like that (route 58 gets windy near the resevoir) but only for like 4 mins... jesus, its also dangerous alot of box trucks use our road and they overflow the lane X_X EDIT: Now imagine if it were only one direction like that... would be 2x as fun, and half as dangerous. |
Looks like a ton 'o fun!! cops ever?
|
id love to go on a road like that. we dont have anything like that except one by the highschool but its like a mile long and kids ride their bikes on it and people walk on it a lot. theres also crossing golfers and stuff because on both side is a huge golf thing.

btw if yall wanna see some great pix from the gap/dragons tail/deals gap go to this site www.killboy.com and to quote the website :D The Tail of the Dragon at Deals Gap, with 318 curves in 11 miles, is America ’s number one motorcycle and sports car road. The nearby Cherohala Skyway is quickly becoming number two with its remote 60 miles of scenic mountain highway. The area also has other roads less traveled, but just as exciting. Come and discover them all. |
Yeah, I was just going to ask about the Five-O contingency.
Here is an interesting thought....find out how many accidents there has been up there. I bet not many since most people are car/bike enthusiasts who know how to handle their machines. Or maybe not. Either way, the cops should leave that stretch alone. |
theres id say atleast 2-3 accidents on the weekdays and 3 times that on the weekends ...when i went up my best friend layed his new r1 down and fell into a big ditch prolly 15feet deep...
and at the bottom of the gap next to the gas and motel there a tree with all types of parts and sh** from crashes and in the gift shop theres a whole wall of pics from bad accidents...look on the site i posted killboy.com they show alot of crashes and accidents |

The good thing about my local 1/8th drag strip is that the only way to get there is going up and down a mountain. We always roll through there and by the time we get to the track we have to let our cars cool off because we have been dogging the **** out of them for the past 45 minutes.
