What’s Up in the Forums: Tail of the Dragon Revisited

HD Forums member completes four-years-in-the-making video series with scenic trip through N.C.’s magnificent, mountainous roadways.

One of our loyal forum members, Johnny Ice, just posted a very cool riding video in the H-D Forums.

“I have been riding for over 30 years,” says the Ice man on his HD Forums profile. “Got into my first Harley in 2009. Now riding a Road Glide.” Judging from the Hendersonville, North Carolina-based Harley enthusiast’s latest ride video, this IT Developer could easily have a second career as a videographer.

“[It was] a more aggressive run this time,” he says  about the latest ride captured in his “Tail of the Dragon Revisited Deals Gap Hwy 129” clip. The video is the third in his “Tail of the Dragon” series, and his first in four years. (You can find Ice’s first two videos here.)
