It has been a long while since I have posted, and even rode my Roketa for that matter, but I would like to share with you the ride of my life. Last summer a few of us from Youtube (17 of us) had met up for an experience of a lifetime, riding this road has taught me sooo much about myself and my scoot, and if you ever get the chance, I recommend this roadway, it is a must.  -m |

The Tail is an AWESOME road, if you ever get a chance to run it, in any vehicle, it's worth the detour. My wife is not a car person, in the slightest, having been in a bad wreck shortly before she was slated to get her license, and she doesn't drive at all, doesn't trust many people behind the wheel. We ran the Dragon a few years ago, in our Hyundai Accent, and she LOVED it. The Tail of the Dragon is US 129 in North Carolina, right along the TN/NC border, on the southeast side of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. www.tailofthedragon.com/ |

Definitely a must do for the bucket list. CCProf - The camera is a SONY Cybershot DSC T-10 A great cam I must say, have taken over 30K image / videos and no complaints. Owenbrau - The camera has a loose bit inside that rattles about, and the wobbly cam mount didn't help much either. Hope to see more Scoots on the Dragon next year! Just remember to take it easy and ride within your limits, it can be a very dangerous motorway. -m |

Has there been any organized rides on the Dragon? I know that the Vespa guys have done it, but I also know that many of them are "vintage or nothing" kinda people....
