there's a left around 1:37 that defies physics, your traveling up hill AND accelerating at the same time while going thru the turn. I'm going to try to organise a charity free ride here some time over the next year, but it needs around 2000 haybails to make it safe, if the guard rails don't get you the jagged rocks will. I got broken off on the next run by a guard rail leaving me with ruptured ACL/MCL in both knees and a smash right knee cap. But I'll be back, no way in hell that road is gonna have the last word!!

Very nice. That corner at 3.40, I was holding on to my chair here saying geeeezzz. The wheels breaking and gripping. Awesome filming and skating.

Amazing, thats all I can say. Looks like it goes from above the tree line ALL the way down into a gully.

yup its long alright, bout 7-10km top to bottom, speeds of 80 -100 depending on wind and your tuck. AND the surface is butter smooth rolled asphalt.
