Here's a photo of me before I "slayed the dragon". Well, I didn't really slay the thing but I actully got through all of those corners without scraping anything or falling off. My companions were a Road King and a BMW R1200RT.
The only down side of the entire trip was about 200 miles in a Nor'easter today. Temp 48-50, winds 15-45, and downpour rain all day. There is nothing that is wateroroof in seven hours of that stuff (including my Black Sheep boots, RKA rain covers for the saddlebags, and GoreTex liners)! I'm having a brandy and hot tub!
