fight any tickets you get at the dragon. that is a US highway under federal jurisdiction. speed limit is 65 regardless of what the signs say. there is a video explaining this if you do some searching. never pay the ticket, always fight them.
All things considered, that was a decent run to the lookout point. It's hard to tell how much you sped up the footage. But after your ride there, it would be foolish to try and gas it in 2nd gear or even 1st gear to climb out of some of those turns. TPD rights expensive tickets from what I hear. And they make you go to traffic court. Not good considering the distance you rode to get there!
I ride twisties all the time and I don't pick out the best lines either. And certainly not after 600 miles
As much as I like hearing the engine accelerating, I like the downshifting sound just as well. It looked like a very spirited ride on your part. You took those curves very well. It's hard to get past 3rd gear the whole way. I really like the speed shifting.
Thanks for sharing... I will be up there next week. Can't wait. Beautiful scenery and great fun to drive. Been there 2 times before with car clubs, in smarts... this year no smart but plan to enjoy the views more so than the aggressive driving.
Looks like an absolute blast. Nice of that Celica and the SUV to let you pass, but the way the Celica was taking those left bends, he's gonna wipe out an oncoming biker.
@OoxTruExoO yeah thats what i was thinking... typical of someone from not in the area i guess. he had florida plates. ALL roads in florida are straigh or straighish. #overhishead
@RC62 glad you liked it rob... ive tried to mix it up a bit, ive had techno dubstep stuff, rock, classic rock and i think even some pop stuff in this series. a little something for everyone. oh and country :) Cheers

@lvizzle5150 i should add that I'm not telling anyone to ride 65mph on the dragon. but you don't have to ride 30mph either!

Good ride, title suggests an accident. Camera placement poor as obstruction occurred ( helmet mount maybe next time?)
Overall pretty good vid.
