Me, aaron, and bryan just got back from riding the Tail of the Dragon. Bryan should have some pics later, and there's a video in the works from aaron. That road is a BLAST! It really pushes the limits of the celi. We did see some dumbasses out there in like a firebird, a mustang, and this brokeass nissan sentra with a big ass tach, some fart can muffler. He couldn't hold a freakin match to the celi!
For those unfamiliar- I attached a link to aDragon Map pic. -------------------- "Somebody give me a fire...so I can burn this city down." - Widespread Panic

I think that was one of the few places that we actually cut the corner a bit. Back on the tn side we stuck to our side of the road for the most part. There were only a couple of places where you could see what was around the turn ahead of time.
That subaru is on a VERY blind curve. I was scared for a couple of bikers that decided they wanted t opass. One passed us on a blind curve, and seriously 3 sec after he got over, a big ass truck comes around the corner. I was sure one of them was going to bite it. -------------------- "Somebody give me a fire...so I can burn this city down." - Widespread Panic
