I've been hearing about the Dragon Tail!
Sounds like you had lots of fun!

Would love to ride that route one day.

I'd love to goto japan and ride all the mountians you guys have, i've seen some pretty crazy video footage of some of the curvy roads you guys have, in fact it suprises me that you would even know about our 11 mile dragon. but its cool never the less.

i've been on the dragon 3 times the past 2 days, and it isn't as dangerous as most people would think... sure if your trying to go as fast as you can i could see potential hazards, but just take your time go the speed limit its still very very exciting and fun.
