You'll be a puddle of poo when you get back.

You really don't want to ride the Dragon after a 500 mile ride the day before. You need to be on your toes and in tip top shape.

Or did you mean trailer bikes down and ride, then trailer bikes back?

yeah, I understand your thinking but I'm not going to do the boy-racer thing.
In consuderation of it though...I've not done that long a ride on this bike...you may be totally right. Hmmm.
As to trailering a bike...CC, c'mon...that's not how you wuz raised in Hicksville.

I wouldn't trailer but I would take more time and enjoy it more.

Just make sure you don't end up on the "Tree of Shame".

I have a hard time not doing the "boy racer thing".

Well, since I've been scooped up from the gutter of goofiness and the fence of f---- ups the tree of shame could be an improvement : ) But, I must admit that riding what maps to be 569 miles for a 23 mile stretch of highway seems a bit much. Prob is my work schedule. Although if i had a few riders to split the room costs I still might do it ???

Just keep in mind when you're riding the dragon that the bike you're on is also your ride home.

have fun, ride safe

Actually, most of the roads around the Dragon are great. There are so many thrilling roads in the area that you don't need to ride the Dragon other than just to say you did.
