It happened to me a few months ago with a Mountain Dragon. I saw it only because it bobbed its head when I was only a few meters away. Straddled it with the front wheels but it took off under the back wheel.

Picture is not mine. Included for reference only.

normally the only thing left of dragons is the tail.
