That's one way to look at it, but I look at it like this: Imagine taking your kids to Disney Land one year and they loved it. The next year all the rides are gone. That'd suck balls.... So does the Dragon now. My club still insists on going this year in May. It'll probably be my last trip for a while. I'd like to fun roads that are fun to ride without police harassment. Speeding tickets, reckless ops... I can understand them doing and say it's part of the game, but ticketing for plate mounts and singling out just because you're there... that's wrong. If I get a ticket while there, I'm heading to the hotel, picking up my gear and riding home on the spot.

Brad is selling it because him n his family want to be closer to a town/city/schools etc for the kids. Not because of the LEO. The Leo have been very respectful n courteous this year, they have wrote tickets to those who have deserved them but even they have stated they deserved it and the LEO werent dicks about it like last year.

I will send you a photo of the back of my bike- that way you might recognize me as I pass you by. this will be my first time there and I am not going to try to prove anything to anyone. I am just going to take it easy and enjoy the roads

If I see you there, I will be looking at the rear of your bike. If it's the same as last year for me, it's nothing but parade speed. The limit is 35mph and I think we were lucky to see 30 mph. A lot of traffic and a LEO every mile. I may be exaggerating a little, we did hit 40 mph for a few feet at times. You can see what my bike looks like in my sig. I'll be wearing a white Teknic jacket and in a group of about 8 to 10 bikes. We plan on mostly riding the other roads in the area. We'll stop near the dragon and let those that haven't rode it make a couple of passes just to say they did. I'll wait for the feedback on the LEO before I go that day.
