    It's about time. NC did it a while back. The Dragon is no place for a truck. In a car or on a bike? Hell yeah. A truck? Absolutely not.

    They aren't, except for the fact that driving the Dragon in a big truck is literally asking for an accident. Even if there's nobody else on the road. It's simply not designed for truck traffic.

    I've taken that road on/in many a vehicle over the last 15 years. Wouldn't consider it in a truck.

    I'm sure there are super truckers out there that will be butthurt that the road is banned. Me? I'm fine with it. I don't need to stroke my ego running that road, although now I simply must do it on a motorcycle.
