Default Our own Dragons Tail III

Even More! In the 5th pic, if you look real close in the center of the pic, between the two trees you can see the roadway, I am standing on the edge of the road, you can see the switchback just below me and the third switchback is the one described above. This goes on for 2.5 miles and is LOWGEAR going up or down due to elevation. After the 2.5 miles of switchbacks it is tight and sweeping twisties for about 15 miles, all Along the Green River. Pics 2, 3, & 4 are of the road I take to get to the Mtns. All of this is less than 30 minutes from my house. I am blessed.

You do live in the prime place to ride. It's good to see you taking advantage of it.
