Title: Scary rides - skilled riders
Post by: John_Banks on June 03, 2011, 04:41:49 PM

Hi

New to this the site generally, but particularly this part of it.

I was watching preview programme to the Isle of Man TT and thinking that I'd have brown trousers doing what they do.

But then saw this link posted in a thread on my other regular motorcycle site:

http://www.angelfire.com/ak2/intelligencerreport/scariest_bike.html

which somehow hasn't pasted as a link!  Sorry, but take look anyhow.

The link to the BMW is that the riders are Germans.

+1. Though the link (angelfire.com) implies a relationship to a ski resort in New Mexico (USA), I understand that the locale is somewhere in Europe (Spain, perhaps). This video showed up here a few years ago. Still worth watching—just looking at it causes my palms to perspire. As one of our members commented back then, just imagine catching a half-buries rock with an inboard footpeg!
