Honda Africa Twin from Lysebotn to The Eagles Nest in Lysefjorden, Norway

One of our favorite motorcycle-roads near Stavanger, Norway.
Riding the famous Lysebotn road from the Lysefjord to ca. 2000 feet / 640m at Ørneredet (The Eagles Nest) restaurant and viewpoint of the fjord and valley. The incline to the top is about 10%.
Here are some pictures of this infamous road: http://tinyurl.com/lyse1

wicked video ! Whats the name of the first song ?

@saggiedaggie The name of the first song is (as both described in the movie, and in the video description) 'Trains' by the excellent UK band Porcupine Tree. Thanks for the praise! :)

Pity the song was playing when you went through the tunnel,I'd have loved to have heard how the bike sounded inside it.

The road looks like a good one to ride

Great road, got to drive it on monday, even if it was cloudy and rainy.
