For those that don't know about the Dragon, it is an 11 mile stretch with 318 turns. That is 28.9 turns per mile. What more can you ask for except to only block anyone else from going on it and have it all for yourself.

These pictures were taken by a biker that hangs out on the Dragon daily and was there to photograph all the s2000's while we were there. Well enjoy folks.






There are tons more pics in the Dragon Ball Run section of these forums.

Words or pictures or video cannot describe this road. It is something that you must experience in person. I hope to put together a 5 minute video next week and we will see how it comes out.

Update: Pictures of one of the guys that hangs out on the dragon to snap photo's of all the riders, cars, and such.

This is him taking a spill last week. I am pretty sure he is okay.














I believe the guy that caught all this on his camera was the one that photographed us the week of the dragon. Poor Bike !

I know it is a 6.5 megapixel camera that can take picture resolutions up to 3072x2048. On his website it actually says he broke his collarbone and banged up his ankle.
