Tail of the Dragon at Deals Gap

[GatorBuell]

Deals gap has been around for ever as a bike hot spot. My old riding buddies were going back in the mid 90's. There are some better roads around that area that have less traffic and less a-holes trying to prove them selves. Dragonslayer is the dude to hook up with though he can give all the info you need.

Looks like real time to me.

Thaloc. I think I know what you're talking about. I was on the dragon web site and saw that they had a "buellforum.com" session.

I think you can post the link. Jeremy is totally cool about that stuff.

Im not sure about it being sped up either. Looks clean and sound matches. Man that guy on that cbr....leaning like that in that riding position...what'd he expect?

@Jornum1 - I would prefer that you ask Dragonslayer to post on this thread or our forum with details if possible. If you can not convince him to do so it's fine to add the link, but it would be much appreciated if you can get him to re-post here.

Hey Thaloc,maybe that guy on the cbr didn't want to skuf up his knee pucks,you know how much those are to replace?In Cali,we have what is called" four corners"It is a section of Highway 1 that leads into a 4-way intersection that has gas,food and a bar.Very big with the bike crowd.On a good day about 200-300 bikes will pass through 4-corners,very high death rate though,it ate my cbr600f1 some years back[smirk]

My brother and I rode there last summer. The Dragon is a crazy ride but we rode mostly back roads on our way. We live in southeastern Pennsylvania and it was a four day, 1700 mile trip. There were a lot of cops on the dragon on the day we were there, so some of the other roads around that area were better to ride, but it was still fun and the entire trip was awesome

I can send him a message and ask if he would mind. I had just seen his post over on the other forum.
Could be a big event with a collaborative effort!
Perhaps someone could event make a page dedicated to a Buell meeting there if there was enough serious interest.

LOL...I love it when I see some guy on an R1/GSXR in a full Dianese race suit with the smooth kneepucks.

It's only a few hours from here (FT Bragg, NC) - a buddy of mine (on an FZ1) go out there a few times a year. There really is nothing else like it - the Dragon itself is amazing, but there are over 300 miles of good roads surrounding it also. We'll head out for a weekend, do the Dragon a few times in the morning, ride other excellent roads all day and then ride the Dragon a few more times before nightfall. It is also one of the few places you can ride around in full race leathers (including going into cafes and such) and not seem out of place.
