I'm a local, yes, the dragon is patrolled, we lose several bikers erery year. On the other hand, there is usually a Highway patrol at each end of the run and every once in awhile you'll see a BMW cop bike. They are mostly there just to remind you of their presence, and to write up the latest biker crash.

Nice place to go. I love it out there. My wife hasn't been and she's bugging me to go. Hot Rod power Toyur keeps getting the way though
