Awesome!! Enjoy!! I hope it's not too crowded to where you can become "Racer X" for a little while. I live in CA and that is one of the places I would like to visit.
Wow way cool. In So Cal we have Ortega Highway...real curvy roads going up or down the mountains. Way cool but now too crowded. I am jealous!!! Nice pic
I've been going every year since 2003 and will continue to do so till the day I die! I've organized the run and its grown from 3 people to 25 people recently. Its on the bucket list for anyone who enjoys driving a car or bike, period! Not only the Dragon, but the other roads that all connect to the Dragon directly like Moonshiners aka route 28 and The Cherahola Skyway route 165 in N.C. and 143 in Tenn. Running it at night time could seem a little crazy but here's the thing, you can see anything coming at you, so you can "live a little" or be Racer X as mentioned earlier! That said, common sense is the order of the day out there as the Dragon can bite your ass at any given time!!!
I go the 2nd weekend in Oct and even started a thread for it here, no bites and that's a first for me in the years I've brought up the run to a forum but that's ok, maybe next year, although the place we stay, The Dragon Pitt Inn, has openings the weekend we're going to be there, just sayin'.

Tail of the Dragon. Never heard of it. Drove the much vaunted Pacific Coast Highway about a month ago. It was cool damp and overcast. Nevertheless there was rental Mustang convertible after rental Mustang convertible speeding down the highway with frozen-smile passengers with determined-to-have-fun smiles plastered on their faces.
I have since found out that the clear weather in the area is May and September. The fog is beautiful---in a closed vehicle.

I just did it a few weeks back during the Hot Rod Power Tour. We took a 67 Chevelle that is set up for drag racing. It was not ideal, but fun either way. I'd love to take my Mustang on it someday.
