Here's a couple pics of me & a local friend on the Dragon in 2005:
clicky here. I've only rode the dragon once...but growing up riding bikes in West Virginia....it's kinda like no big deal...just more traffic than I prefer. Good place at the end of it get a big juicy cheeseburger and some great onion rings, though.

Duley noted.. and I will see what my schedule will allow me to do and try to make plans to somehow meet you guys there. That will mean I will have to come up with a trailer to haul the bike there. Hmmmm... have to see about all that..

Wow. Rowdy you going to go? Cool!!!

What are the "Exact" dates? If I can tie it into a weekend then it may be alot more do-able for me. I will write them down on the calendar as soon as you guys know.
