After so many accidents and incidents involving semi-tractors the authorities finally decided to restrict large commercial vehicles from using this stretch a few years ago.

Weather on the Dragon is fairly predictable most of the summer. The winter months from November through March can be impossible to predict.

It is not a road for the squeamish, but if you're looking for a little excitement don't miss this one. It has a well-deserved reputation for being dangerous because of unpredictable snowstorms and blizzards, and driving under these conditions, can be extremely challenging.

And these showers are here and there They often disipate in the late afternoon leaving several hours of good riding before dark. I'm looking forward to many more in this series.
