Wow, beautiful scenery.  But it seems as though you'd have to be nuts to ride that road.  I mean the tire track the dude is in is less than a foot from the edge in places...  That means, it appears,  his left hand grip and left foot are hanging off the edge of that 1000' + drop off...    Maybe it's one of those things that it's not as bad as it seems....

Okay, I was getting sea sick just watching that.   :o

I wonder how long it takes for the road crew to show up after you report a pot hole.   ;D ;)

One thing about it, if you went off the edge, you would likely have time to repent your sins before hitting bottom......providing you could quit screaming long enough...... ;D

That's even crazier than some of the switchback roads in Colorado. I will say that some of those roads get really skinny and even in a Jeep will make your buttcheeks pucker. Usually about the time your mirror is hitting a mountain and the opposite side tire isn't entirely on the road. I'd never do it on a motorcycle though.

Just one wrong bump and you're over the edge.

When I was younger I would have enjoyed riding that road on the left side.   8)

Now I would find it extremely stressful to ride on even up tight against the mountain.   :-\
