US 129 madness

Post by maddiedog »

I took a trip last year up to ride US-129 (aka Tail of the Dragon), here's my ride report. Trucks are crazy up there, our group almost got in a head-on with a semi truck, and we had to stop more than once to allow them through.

Here's a video of a semi attempting to traverse the road:


If you're local and have ridden US-129, you should sign this petition to try to get trucks banned from US 129: http://www.change.org/petitions/ike-s-l ... l-vehicles. Petitions don't do anything 99% of the time, but it can't hurt to at least raise awareness about it. ;)
Currently ride: Nothing right now - mostly mountain biking with my boys until they're old enough to ride :lol:
