    Sod this for a game of soldiers!

    Abject apologies if this has been posted before but I couldn't find any trace of it...

    Hard to think of something motorcycle related that appeals less but hats off to the intrepid Enfield pilot.

    That road surface is almost up to state highway 1 standards.

    Holey moley, have to say my heart was in my mouth when Clarkson's car had to squeeze past the other one around the outside, and while watching this footage my eyes were staring at the road immediately in front! hahahaha Talk about target fixation avoidance and I'm sitting in the comfort of my armchair!!!

    Can't get over the nonchalant attitude of the locals all sitting on the edge of the precipice, and then the ones leaving their truck doors open oblivious to the bikes trying to pass.

    It helps when your religion teaches you that you will be reborn in another lifetime after you die.
