I will probably get a few, but $5.50/ea CD is a bit much. I can understand buying a CD and then paying per photo like $3, just to save on disk space, but oh well. I'll see what Killboy.com has...

Heh, just messing with ya. I'm OK with putting a couple tires on the center line, as long as you have the ability to correct if needed and it's in a situation where you'll have plenty of time to do so, keeping in mind that a bike could be flying around at 70mph.

i know. this is my first time going and i live nearby so plan on going back a few times this year. prob go in the middle of the week when it isnt so busy to learn the road. but i know on the bike forums i hear complaints about the group and about the wreck with the bikes.

What's the bike forum? Link?

Sure, some of our people weren't the best, but it's not like the bikers stayed on their lines either...

This last weekend had its ups and downs including some very poor driving by a group of enthusiasts in their cars. I don’t see the need to mention who they were, but if you(you the poor drivers) are reading this, you know exactly who I am talking about. Late Saturday there was a wreck on 28 where a car had crossed over the double yellow and impacted with 3 bikes. Everyone made it out ok, but this stuff just doesn’t need to happen. I don’t typically call out cage drivers as much as I do bikers, but on Saturday, I spoke to 5 different cars, after being told about their poor sharing skills. We all need to be able to enjoy this area and get along, so please remember that when you are here.

Because the bikes never cross the lines...

Way to call out a whole group because of 1 putz.

From what I hear anyways, the FC and the bikes weren't driving for shit.

Yesterday was an interesting day on the Dragon. There were a bunch of cars up here that didnt need to be here, and there were some riders in the same boat. Folks, I feel the need to remind you that this is public road that you have to share with everyone else AND this isnt a racetrack. There were a couple of vehicles that were trying to be drift racers, and that is just unacceptable. So much so that I called the drivers out in the parking lot. Please remember that there are others out there, and your actions can change their day, just like it will change yours. Nuff said ??

This isn't a racetrack? DUH. Tell that to the bikes doing 60+ around turns.

I will agree with the drifting thing. That's just unacceptable on any public road, much less the Dragon.

I'm not saying that the 7 guys didn't have retards and fuck ups. But this guy needs to get a grip on things. It's not like the cars, and us, were the only ones being dangerous...

I was told the FC did not cross the line but the bike did. So what really happened?
