I know it takes all sorts and that the road is not a race track, but please explain what pleasure there is in riding around like a line of little ducks and why then ride 'sports' bikes to do it. Otherwise nice video , love that road.
"It's not WHAT you ride, it's the WAY that you ride it."
All the bikers in this clip are advanced riders who like nothing more than pitting their skill and experience against a very technical road. Advanced riding is all about making safe progress, and where the nature of the road itself is the challenge, can really give you a buzz. It doesn't then really matter whether you ride the latest hot rocket or a heavy tourer as speed isn't the aim.
One of my favourite runs in n.i. this- do the derry (or londonderry if you prefer- ive no time for the same old tired nonsense) to belfast then round the coast to ballycastle run and back regularly. you round n.i often mate?
