Well here I come and I'm so not scared,
Got my pedal to the metal, got my hands in the air
Look out, you take your blinders off
Everybody's looking for a way to get real gone

Jazz, I hope you can make it! Thanks for the fantastic pics. You are correct, pics cannot convey that road's true nature. It can only be experienced first hand!

Also for those wondering, we will once again have fees. Right now we are waiting on figures for meals and shirts. Once we get those nailed down we'll broadcast the fee amount. Also starting this year we will be offering payment via Paypal...
I have the Web Store set up and just waiting for the amounts.....
As soon as Lee announces the amounts the store will be open......
The reputation of the Dragon as being one of the ultimate sportscar and motorcycle roads is not confined to North America alone. Thanks to the World Wide Web, the experience of the Tail of the Dragon draws Sports Car and motorcycle enthusiasts from around the world.
Case in point, compliments of the weekly blog from our friend, killboy:
Follow the links in the comments of of that picture. That MINI had just previously been turning hot laps on the 'Ring!!! ( the Nürburgring ,for those not in the now, one of the most if not most acclaimed tracks in all of Europe)
It is not unheard of for such drivers who take in the tracks of Europe , the Autobahn and the Alps, transport their exotic beauties and supercars across the sea to come face to face wiht the Tail of the Dragon!!

Please sign me up, I will register on the web site. Can really only make one big event a year. Was thinking of the National, but this seems to fit me better then Denver. Also did the National in KC, Return to MeccaII and the Dragon has been on my list to do. Did Mapquest and see it is a easy days drive to get there and back.
Excellent!! Glad you can make it to this one!!!!!

but 300+ curves in 11+ miles requires TOTAL CONCENTRATION
we cannot be looking for cows or sheep...and stuff
Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry
When you drive the dragon in a hurry
You think I'm not aware of that?!? I'm thinking we won't be seeing any farm animals on this run anyway. And I kinda like my car, so I'd rather not do something stupid on this one.
I already told you...I'll keep the chatter to a minimum on future runs. Your points regarding the interferences it can create were duly noted.

That be ME, Oh boy things are going to be even crazier than normal now..........YOU WILL NEVER REGRET coming to the DRAGON unless I have to "COLD CO*k SOMEONE IN THE HEAD" other than that it will be super fun in MY BACKYARD this time!!!!!!!! WHHHOOOO YOOOOOO
Regarding the D2-ihawk exchange just now, it's a should be noted again, when running the Dragon, best to let your passenger enjoy the scenery. Drivers most definitely must maintain concentration on the road ahead of them. Never know what might come around those blind turns.
Farm animals on the Dragon: not likely, mainly the forest variety, deer, turkeys, even a bear or two.
Farm animals can be seen along the Skyway-Dragon loop in the 72 and 360 segments.
Diana, glad you'll be joining us. You won't regret it!!
