Checking for photos on Killboy.com he said that he was going to be out of town and his associate was going to be taking photos. The alternate website is www.dragaknee.com.

No photos yet but here is some news that was posted:

Sunday, April 18, 10:12 A.M.

Wow, a lot happened at Deal's Gap yesterday. It was REALLY crowded when I got there around 11:30, with 80+ S2000s, MR2s, Corvettes, Jaguars, NSXs, and other various cars. On top of that, there were a ton of cruisers and sportbikes. Then at 12:30 or so, the cops rolled in. I don't mean a couple of squad cars, I am talking 2 biker cops, 7 squad cars, and a helicopter. They were NOT messing around. They lined the road pretty much the entire length of Deal's Gap, from the Overlook all the way to the state line. Several were running radar and the helicopter was calling in double yellow violations. I know that many riders received tickets yesterday, so be careful people! Everyone was going through there very slowly, keeping right around 30 mph. The riders and the drivers were not pleased. I know of at least 2 bites, both Florida riders. One guys bike went over the side and down into a ravine. He was ok though. Another guy went into a ditch and broke his collarbone on a rock. His bike was scuffed but not in too bad of shape. I took a ton of pics and you can look for them at Killboy.com later this coming week. Off to the Jason Scott benefit ride now. BTW, I have cleaned up the site a bit and put old photographs and logs in the log section of my site.

 

wow...amazing.....we are famous now..

 

This is what the a Maryville newspaper had to say.

I do not remember seeing any cops. I guess that I was just too consentrated on the drive.

 

I counted a total of about 14 police officers on the dragon on Saturday not including the helicopter.

4 motor cycles

3 black squad cars

7 tan squad cars

It's great to see we made the news!!

 

That's some serious law enforcement. I'm glad that the S2000 owners knew to keep thier cool and not drive in a manner that would attract unwanted attention which was shown by the fact that no Wake the Dragon drivers were ticketed.

 

WHOA! I saw no motorcycle cops! I suspected they were in the mix when i saw the PoPo's bring their "club" up there to kill everyones fun. DOH!

 

"We're here to discourage these damn yahoos from coming, generate some revenue if they do, and be a big pain in the ass regardless."

 

Yep

But at least none of us were cited (on the dragon that is) and they didn't mention our cars by name.

IMO, we don't need any bad press. Leave that to the MR2's and Miata's

 

Maybe I was too zoned in on my driving....I did not notice the cops along the route or the helicopter...oh well...catch me if you can.

 

Sounds like a crazy question, but I can't help but wonder what the footage looks like from the chopper. I bet he got some good shots of us running the dragon.
