Nice ride. I was fortunate enough to ride Tail of the Dragon back in July and it was a blast. As some other commenters have stated, the camera doesn’t really do the road justice and there are a lot of great riding roads in that area.
Rider from Boston here. Cool to see your journey down and the dragon itself. Def on the list, only slightly nervous for it. Not cuz of the road, i can rip that easy. Its the show-offs and double line crossers that kinda scare me off a bit.
glad to see the 3 of you having fun on the tail and didn't have any issues with it. hoping to run into blue bike doyle and her 3 wheels at some point just out riding around being we live kinda close to each other and seem to ride the same roads quite often...LOL stay safe and keep on riding.
Road down from the Boston area last month the dragon was great but so many awesome roads in that area ended up riding over 600 miles in four days there glad we did it will do it again. Be safe brother
Great video! I love it up in that area so many fun roads and views. The dragon is just special and rite of passage type road. I got to do it a few days before they repaved and then again last month in the rain..... don't go in the rain or do but go slow. Also the run down Indian dealership would be top tier marketing trolling
@@BikesBeardsAndBrews you know that you say it a night dragon run would be interesting but not sure I wanna add rain but I will watch your video doing it 😂
I wonder if anyone ever crashed for the photographer. Killboy was the only one I every heard of. I got to make it down that way. Maybe stay on the NC Side and ride back and forth.
Man the camera just doesn’t do those hills justice. It also doesn’t do the drop off on one side justice either. You guys who have never ridden here please make sure you ride your own ride.
Dam near all of the roads in and around that area are fun to ride!
Right?!? No arguments here!
The tail is definitely on the bucket list
In the fall, during the week. Much less pressure to go fast.
Make it happen! So worth it!
its really nice that they paved that road this year.....
Right?! Total upgrade!
Thanks for the shout out, it was awesome day ❤❤❤
No Prob thanks for coming out!
👍🤠Good one Be ..True Words as to running on weekday.. Thanks for Ride Along🤗👌
My pleasure my dude!
Heck yeah! LOL, "hipster sparks" - that's a good one! That road is on the bucket list... next time I'm down that way, I'll ride it for sure.
That is a Doyle trade mark!
Man, I haven't been to the Dragon since 2014 and it's a beautiful area. Riding it during the week is the way to go! Great video Ben!
Time to get back up there! Iay he there in June...just saying
Your video is the first RUclips video of trail of dragon I've ever seen. I'm sold, curves looks dope. I need to get down there and whip it. 👊
Let's go mofo! Next year, let's make it a thing!
Thanks for the Ride long! And Tell Doyle I found all your Stickers 😂😂😂
Hahaha I'll pass it along
Great advice and first person view, enjoy it!
Thanks my dude and thanks for watching!
The new pavement looks great!
Oh it so is! Get back out there dude!
Awesomeness 💯🤙
Hells yeah! Thanks for watching!
Fantastic ride! I think you just helped me plan my next trip.
Get it done! I may be back that way in June...

It sure doesn't! Even in 4k it's not good enough but it's something!
Great video and some real good advise for those who never ridden the Dragon. Also when I rode it.. I went 100.000. MPH.. It was a blur... LOL
Hahaha I've heard you did that, totally fact lol
saw both your angle and Doyles both were a good ride to watch
Excellent!! Thanks for watching!

Fair enough! Take the tips on this video and you'll do great!
Definitely a bucket list ride. Just not doing the Iron Butt journey you do to get down there.
Ha! I only do that because I want to be where I want to be and not waste time getting there
glad to see the 3 of you having fun on the tail and didn't have any issues with it. hoping to run into blue bike doyle and her 3 wheels at some point just out riding around being we live kinda close to each other and seem to ride the same roads quite often...LOL stay safe and keep on riding.
Just hit home up and he'll come find you!
Awesome video as always
Thank you kindly!
It was awesome day fun day
Yeah it was!!
Omg! So jealous… this pavement looks really fresh and new! When we rode it in 2020 it was NOT in that good shape!!!😅
Time to get out there! Get it done!
Road down from the Boston area last month the dragon was great but so many awesome roads in that area ended up riding over 600 miles in four days there glad we did it will do it again. Be safe brother
You’re on point with all your tips brother. Ended up riding the dragon multiple times in both directions that week lol
Excellent my dude and glad you enjoyed the ride down there and the dragon!!

I kinda want to do it at night and in the rain, seems like that would be a huge change
@@BikesBeardsAndBrews you know that you say it a night dragon run would be interesting but not sure I wanna add rain but I will watch your video doing it 😂
Let’s go
We so went!
I will ride the Dragon sometime this year.
Make it happen!
🤘🤘🤘
💯🎉💯🎉
Rode it in February... could actually see around the curves and switchbacks (no foliage)
Nice! Now if only it wasn't freezing to get there in Feb
Bad ass bro
Thanks my dude!

There have been a quite a few crashes in front of the photo booths.
I mean my first time I definitely crossed way over the line while posing
So the $20 offer good on old pictures from two years ago when I was there? Just asking. Definitely looks smoother after they repaved it.
ohhh honestly? no idea
Man the camera just doesn’t do those hills justice. It also doesn’t do the drop off on one side justice either. You guys who have never ridden here please make sure you ride your own ride.
You are so right and I mention that on the moonshiner 28 vid coming soon.
Harley T Shirt store... no dealerships closer than 2 hours in any direction
Yeah it's weird to me but here we are!
In my hood
Tallest from the hood
I make it
Yeah you did!
maybe next year I'll hit the tail before Vamm25.
Get it done!
How was your shoulders after doing that a couple times ? Haha
Never had shoulder issues riding so they're good!
Lol
💯💯💯
