Have a fun and safe ride, weekends get pretty crowded up there.

not only is it crowded up there, but lots of rashers on rockets trying to be the next sensation at killboy, and not at all interested in the scenery.......kinda takes the fun out of the dragon for me personally, but no doubt there's lots of awesome riding up there.......enjoy.

Yeah, I was gonna say the weekend is the worst time to go. I'm heading up there myself day after tomorrow. Going to get there Saturday morning and ride some of the roads in the area but am going to avoid the Dragon until Monday. I'm staying a whole week so I should be able to get in some decent riding. If you're there on the weekend then stay on your side of the yellow line and if you can't then slow down. Try to stay away from the center line as much as you can, actually, because people cross it all the time all day long out there. Definitely do the Cherohola Skyway ride while you're there. It's much more scenic than the Dragon.

I would second this route. Just did it but in the reverse order. The Dragon and Cherahola get the press but 360 is an outstanding ride. Good luck and ride safe.
