Just did it a couple of weeks ago with 7 other bikes, 5K round trip, had lots of fun. Riding in the mountains is amazing. Have a great trip and safe travels!

Home from the Dragon and many other nice rides in the area. I found the Rattler to be more of a technical ride than the Dragon.

Be safe. Its not too tough, but I did it early during an October weekday with rain. So I just about had it all to myself. I imagine it will be pretty busy this weekend with it being Labor Day in the States and a lot of people taking that final summer trip.

there's no "luck" involved... it's a public road.... ride it within your skills and you will enjoy it,
Ride like you some racer, on a closed course....maybe not so much
