Here's a Dragon picture sequence for ya...

I fully agree that it is one of the most dangerous roads in the US and people ride it like they ride the road in front of their house everyday.:banghead:
 
Here in Mexico we have a place like the dragon. It's the road from Mexico city to Cuernavaca, there's a place in beetween called Tres Marias where every Sunday hundreds of riders go for breakfast. You can see all types of bikes: sport bikes, chopper, cross, even scooters. There's a couple of photographers in the curves. Long story short, some of the photographers were removed because of the large amount of accidents like this one, rider waving at the camera, not enough riding skills to take the curve, crash. You can see some pictures at motosentresmarias.com - Inicio There's good riders, bad riders, stupid people doing stupid stuff, even some crazy thins like this:

(it's not me, just a photo of the site) I'll post some pictures next time I ride there. Meanwhile you can watch the site, somewere in the site there's a naked wine/black Hayabusa with me and my Icon hooligan represent jacket :laugh:
 
From another forum:
Talked to US129Photo guys today.

Apparently the rider walked away. He then proceeded to blame the dragon photographers for causing the crash. The rider had only been riding for 3 weeks...

No word on any injuries but I imagine after the adrenaline wore off he was hurting.

Remember kids, look where you want to go. Looking at the object you dont want to hit is going to make you hit it.
 
:wtf: that vette shattered like glass............ maybe you should wear a helmet while you drive a vette
 
I have only ridden the dragon once, two up, second turn from the start a Harley tried to use my space on my side of the road, well within the yellow line. I was there, so he could not, missed us by a couple of inches and wiped out right near us.

Don't think I'm really interested in doing that again, but if I have to, it will be on my dirt bike.
