Gotcha beat, Brett: 2 out of 10. But then, I'll do a self-imposed deduction of 1 because (and I'm going against the conventional wisdom here) I don't consider the Dragon a legendary ride. I did it once, will do it again if/when I'm in the area, but it's way over-hyped in my personal opinion. "Much ado about nothing" is the phrase that comes to mind.

So many more beautiful and interesting routes out there.
