Here's a few that I took . Didn't take to many since everyone else was snapping them so often , figured I'd copy them once they started getting posted .

A guy on a zx10 went down in that spot on friday afternoon. I went through right after it happened and it was pretty messy. They were still trying to fish him out from down the embankment.

Yeah I came right after it happened too. Saw the bike on the left side of the turn and just a helmet in the road. Didn't stop because the cop was there with the guy that he was riding with. I thought the guy was ok since they didn't seem to concerned. Came back and figured out the guy was down at the bottom of the embankment on the right when the rangers and paramedics were down there putting him on a stretcher. Still don't know how he ended up there and his bike on the other side of the road a good 20 yards from him. Talked to the paramedics and they said he was gonna make it. Screwed up his brand new ZX-10 though.

He went off the road on the right side well before the curve, you could see his marks.

Dang didn't know this. Explains it though. Sucks that it happened. I passed 4 Tennessee state patrol leaving the dragon Sunday and they were all on 129. Seems they are getting worse from what I have heard in the past.

Going through my go pro stuff, and one thing i have noticed is that it does no justice to how sharp these curves are!

anyone else agree that the wide angle of a go pro does this?

Definitely agree  . Also does no justice for the speed that your moving looks slower than actual speed .
