Rider Comments:

• This road is only about 18 miles long, but closed off to commercial traffic. There are no buildings and minimal traffic along the road so it is there just for your enjoyment. We ran this road multiple times since it was so fun. It combines scenery, tight curves, and elevation changes. Even though traffic is typically pretty light, watch out for trees that sometimes fall across the road. It's worth stopping at some of the overlooks, just beware that when we were here, the vegetation at some of them had grown up to the point that it was more 'over' than 'look' since all you could see were trees and brush. A good way to get from US 321 to the Dragon, and still fun on its own merit. - Anonymous (6/21/11)
• This stretch of road is one of my favorites. Much more scenic than the 'Dragon' and not as much work. Great ride!! When in Tennessee, I always ride this one!! - Big Dave, Angleton, Texas (7/9/07)
• Great road for rolling - watch out for the speed zone in the middle of the run. Large elevation change. Lots of long sweeping turns. - Matt Comrie
