on video yes but i had been able to see across the valley some time before what traffic was coming so knew the road was clear after the bikes went by.
i have seen vids taken with the camera on the helmet which would show this sort of detail but the problem comes when you get to a corner and are lookind where you want to go, not where the bike is going , plus you have to concentrate on moving ones head slowly, thats too hard , so occasionally one gets an unexplained manoevre as a consequence.

no they were good guys i did it last year with a group from the svportal but had to do it with my tdm as i had written off my sv going into the side of a car that had crossed the main road without stopping. I now have a new sv and am doing battle for compensation.
The whole essence of riding these roads is to resist the temptation to ride too quickly but to leave something in reserve for the unexpected tightening corner this way you get to enjoy the views as well. after all one wants it all to be enjoyable without too much concentration after all it is not a race

We've got some cracking roads in this country but none as flowing, well surfaced, free of traffic,scenic or as long as that. Jealous! Nice soundtrack with that thou infront too

Added to my to do list

There's actually a few even better roads in this region. Pretty much all the roads come to think of it are awesome in the French / Spanish Pyranees area.

Bibio, that's not really that close to be honest, just a few moments of bunching at corners.

I think you misunderstood I said they looked like good guys to ride with

You look to be right! With the amount of decreasing radius turns that you see in the video i'd be erring on the safeside myself! That and a total lack of skill = slow rider (talking about myself btw so there arnt anymore misunderstandings!)

looks awesome!
