The dragon is very nice, Just make sure you stay in your lane, and drive at your own pace not someone else's pace....
If you see Darryl(killboy.com) while he is taking pic, do not speed up or Show off in front of the camera....Why? Cause 1) you cant tell if the car is going fast or slow..2) showing off leads to trouble...

This is directed towards everyone, Im just trying to warn all, to be safe and keep the car Reputaion up there positive, for all of us car people!

later, Rush

Well most of the time, killboy.com and his crew will direct the truck throught the gap on there bikes and stay 2-300 yards in front of them so they can warn people...which helps out a lot, but its up to you if you wanna listen to them and slow down or be stupid and just keep driving like an idiot and cause a big scene!

Its hwy129 which runs through Robinsville NC,

Killboy.com take all the pics for anything that has to do with the Dragon(deals gap), they also help to maintain the road, keep it clean and safe for everyone. And yes they could ride the dragon blind folded....

couldn't agree more. Darryl takes some killer pictures and trys to get just about everyone passing by when he can.

and why do they allow trucks on that road?

RUSH

Its a main road, and anyother way to get around it, is hours out of the way.

Yeah its stupid to take a truck through there but, its not a 5time a day thing, you might see 2-3 trucks(if that) a week!

There is a petition going around to save the Dragon from I-3hwy(interstate) to pass through there.... and you know how stupid the government is, they wanna pick the curviest road in the world(exagerating(spl) to make it staight!

They got roads like that in Peru and what most folks do is honk the hell outta the horn warning folks they are coming thru.

The pics are an eye-opener though.

Actually it is posted that trucks prohibited and are NOT to go through but some do not listen and attempt it anyway.
