That Goldwing is proof that you can be riding great, within the law, and safe and still get into a head on.

The road itself isn't bad and it's very fun. It's just the other nut cases out there you have to watch for.

Aint that the damn truth Ram. Thats exactly why Gzr & I picked a "non-tourist" week to be in 'dem dar Hills They are absolutely gorgeous - but not a lotta room for error on the Dragon - for ANYbody.

Do ya'll checkout Killboy [Darryl] very often? He got these kick ass photos of the 2-up kids over riding their abilities and, as is common, the unsuspecting guy following them had to lock 'em up when they went for a dance with the pavement & endo'd his own.

ALL three are a'okay. Just another day on the Hill for 20yr olds

Before ~


During ~


The poor guy behind 'em deciding what to do next

Folks just remember that the Dragon bites back worse if you poke him in the eye! The road is in great condition but most people's mistake is too overestimate their abilities. As long as you ride within your abilities and pay attention to the other "dare devils" then you will be safe. Thanks Ram for posting this reminder to everyone! Great road just remember to respect it! :respek: or else...
