I always wondered what happened to that rider as this video has been around for ever. If anyone knows please post.

Fill for ladys family, the dragon is scary to me i don't fear me it everything and everybody else when i ride that i watch for and thats just to much to watch for at one time, so i havn't done it.

 

Rode it on the 17th of July from Deals Gap to Marysville in the rain, definitely no fun. Teo different people crashed, one needed emergency help and the other one just needed help getting his bike out of the ditch. Ride within your own comfort zone.

 

I was shocked by seeing this video.Can anyone tell me if you find anything about this post......

I hate it when people act stupid. Especially on a motorcycle. Mistakes on a scooter are not very forgiving.

 

Some riders shouldn’t ride the Dragon at all, their not good enough to ride it.

 

..the people in the car should have stopped long enough to throw down a copy of 'Ride like a Pro' video to the Harley rider..lol..

 

It generally boils down to funding and how many people live in a general location and who wants to pay for the additional services. Bluntly put: do the locals of the Dragon want and need another EMS base?

Sadly, it usually boils down to "who wants to pay"?

 

I rode the Dragon for the first time last year with a buddy. We got there about 2:00 in the afternoon on a Sunday. Lets see, as I recall a Porsche got rapped around a tree and a motorcycle rider had suffered a broken collar bone......that's before we arrived. Got to see an idiot on a Dyna Glide almost wipe out 2 full dressers directly in front of me when he crossed the center line in a turn. Those poor guys finally had to pull off the road just to collect their composure.
I enjoyed the trip and will probably go back some day. Not because the Dragon is something I'd ride on a regular basis. I'd go back because the surrounding area probably has some of the best motorcycle roads in the country. I'm not trying steer anyone away from making their first trip to the Dragon. Everyone I know that has made the trek was glad they did. Kinda like making Bike Week or Sturgis. One of those must do deals. Just 2 things to remember. Know your limits or the Dragon will make you cry like little girl. The last and most important thing is to expect there's an idiot around ever corner...because there's a good chance there is. Controlled chaos, yea that's the Dragon in all its glory.
