New 1987 Scirocco 16v owner Now: The Dragon



I ran the dragon last April, though not in the rocco.  Planning on running
it again this April (again, not with the rocco).  However, if I end up
"tailing" Dan Snow this year, sounds like I very well may finally hit the
beast with the rocco.

The Dragon can be a lot of fun, but it's best to go durring the week when
the horeds of squid bikers and idiot car/truck/suv/18 wheel drivers arn't
all trying to squeez through it at the same time.  I almost found myself as
a hood ornament to a GMC Yukon that didn't understand what the double yellow
line was all about while rounding a blind corner.  Upon reaching the end of
the dragon, I required a new pair of shorts.

Behold my Dragon Slayer
