Title: i slayed the dragon.
Post by: jiggersplat on September 23, 2008, 07:52:18 PM
went down to ride the dragon for my bachelor party last weekend.... couple photos for you guys.  we also had a vfr800 with us, along with my supra tt, a 300zx tt, miata and spec-v sentra.  it was a hoot.  i am already thinking about when i might be able to go back.  photos are proofs from zeefoto.com and us129photos.com.

Sounds and looks like fun!  Never done it, but I hear THP are getting worse.  Have any issues?

a buddy in the sentra got nicked but let off with a warning.  other than that we didn't have any issues.

THP are a f%$king PAIN IN THE ASSPIRIN, 30MPH STRICTLY enforced , my dragon pic, there was a cop 20secs behind me, ( on side of road, and aminute in front (http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k2/yamahonkawazuki/highresnekkidness2.jpg) course hell, at that time, i was not feeling well, and doubt i could go much faster than 40 if so inclined, i live 40 minutes ride from the dragon, so i ride there, ride it, ride home and i curled up in pain ROFLMAO  :laugh:

it was, in fact, quite awesome.  got stuck behind some trucks a few times which was really frustrating.  i had to just pull off and wait a few minutes.
