If you want to do the dragon do it at the break of dawn if you wait till later you'll just be doing 15mph behind the guy on the trike. During the day there are plenty of other amazing roads a little drive away that are pretty much deserted.

The top of the damn is a great place for pics at sunset.
or when we did a run in the day we had 2 cops in front of us and one behind us. also we passed 2 positioned on the dragon running traps.

honestly each year just gets worse and worse with cops and then you have a bunch of people running in the early am so that's becoming a crowded time.

why cant cops just block off the ends of the dragon and run at your own risk speed runs lol almost like a mini race event. damn public roads.

It would be much safer, the amount of people crossing the double yellow is shocking. But then it would be a pay for drive because the cops couldn't make any money then.

I always get a kick out of the bikers saying cars are the problem with the center line but they put their tires on it then lean well over the line with their body.

I hug the **** out of that double yellow tying to get that perfect apex. More than a few bikers have almost been introduced to my driver’s side mirror because they are leaning over the line.
