That could have ended so much worse... My Stang could have been insurance company's Stang, especially if he got hit head on by a car or bike in the other lane

Going back on Easter again this year.
I’ll be stalking the SDGT again. Unless they deliver his Evo before the 13th.
Looks like we have 4 on this trip.
SDGT or EVO
VFR 800 (RWB)
Harley bagger (in pic) or “the Willy G bike”
H2SX

I was there last week. Do you think this might be a tourist destination?
Every time I have gone there the last few years there has been one or more car clubs there. This time it was a Bronco rally. This was on a Thursday and probably 20 - 30 drove by while I was stopped.
A friend told me I made 129 Slayer's highlights on FB so I went and snagged the pic.

How about a pic from 1990. My first trip to the area and before US129 at Deals Gap became the dragon. Back when the speed limit was 55MPH. Back when men were men and bikes didn't have ABS, traction control or EFI.

It was definitely a lot better when it was just a good road over the hill and not a tourist destination.
I rode it the first time in 1990 and have been riding it since. I still remember it in the 90s. The speed limit was 55 but dropped to 40 at the bottom where it ran along the lake. The cops would hang out along the lake where it was easy to get people going way over the ridiculous speed limit. I never saw a cop on the curvy part of the road. People would bring their racebikes with slicks, no lights or tags, and run them there. I still have some of the original pre-dragon t shirts.
To really make this like the thread with the same name on the other site we need to start arguing about passing on the DY, using public roads as personal racetracks, what's the best beer, and a bunch of other stuff I don't remember.
So let's get to it!!

I just remembered some more things thing we NEED to discuss on this thread: Kids on bikes, Dogs on bikes, ATTGATT, using the front brake, do photographers cause people to crash?, Harley riders, squids, girls showing boobies for the photographer, carrying guns while riding,......I'm sure I'm still missing some things.
If we discuss all these things then maybe we can get this thread moved to the basement where it belongs

I was responsible for the old thread to get moved. They posted some chick in skimpy clothes and I responded with she looks like she's seen more trains than Isle of Sodor. All these white knights came running in. They said that was inappropriate, but laughing at us guys getting cut down by sports cars in the wrong lane is totally fine.To really make this like the thread with the same name on the other site we need to start arguing about passing on the DY, using public roads as personal racetracks, what's the best beer, and a bunch of other stuff I don't remember.

That thread got locked a few times before it got moved. It wasn't just your post. It's still going strong in JM but I think it's been locked a few times there as well. Maybe it needs to be moved to CSM
