ya, I have been there. We ended up driving through it at midnight when we got there because our hotel was on the other side. it is much more then you anticipate. kinda nuts… a lot of people got sick from driving it. if you go left you are going right shortly there after. worth the trip!!

Been there multiple times. Used to live in Knoxville, TN, about 45 minutes away (was at the Dragon many weekend), and went down in '02 for a TT event. For those who truly LIKE to drive, this is a must-do trip.

Likely great, but I’m sure the level of ass-clownery is quite high.

yeah iv been before. i was there in the summer of 06. me and my dad put our bikes in the bed of the truck and drove to ashville n.c. we spent the night in tents at a campground and early in the morning drove 110 miles to deals gap. when we arrived there were more sport bikes than i could count. the only thing that sucks about “the dragon” is that all cars and trucks that go down the road. It is only one lane each way and there is a double yellow the whole time with alot of blind corners. Also, there is alot of cliff like edges along the road that makes it very unsafe. I didnt see very many police so people were passing and riding very fast paced. i felt right at home. what i liked more that deals gap was the state park that is like 50 miles long located near. the corners were farther appart and u were able to hit some good speeds. where at deals gap u stay in 2nd gear pretty much the whole time. i think the corners are too close together just one after the other. dont get me wrong it was sick and a experince ill never forget. i also seen someone crash trying to keep up with his friends who were farther ahead. he came into a corner too fast and over shot the turn right into a ditch. luckily he was ok. from what i understand there are crashes there every day. I am probrobly going there again this year so im sure some of u may want to car pool just a though. but go and experience alot of sick twists.
