Cool pic, great article.


I do not see a problem with his driving in the pic. If he can see far enough ahead to know he had a clear road than he is fine. If this was one of those 2nd gear 180 degree switchbacks then yes he is driving dangerous.


I wish he had not stated his speed in the article and I wish he had skipped the part about racing the bikes.
More fuel for the local police in my opinion.

*edit - I just realized he is so far on the wrong side of the road I thought he was on the correct side and touching the line. The whole spirit of the road is to drive the road not find the fast line through the turn a la road course race track.

I agree with all of the above he is the reason the police patrol that road so much.
