Road Porn

Found an amazing road on friday. Just a typical Norwegian single trackcoastal road. But nearly resurfaced. Not a car in sight. Just sharp swings and sharp undulations. So much fun.

Thanks, Must give that a go, after all I've used the Ffestiniog narrow gauge railway & the Slate mine where you have to make yourself small to get through the very narrow tunnels.

Beachy Head. Rode in the weekend.
They filmed Harry Potter's Quidditch here!

Those snowplough marker poles at the left of the road... can be sketchy fuckers if you are a cyclist.
I heard of a guy driving a tractor without doors. One of those poles was leaning over and was pointing towards traffic. At that angle he couldn't see the reflective stripe, but instead he got skewered by it. Went straight trough his abdomen.
He actually survived as it missed all vital organs.

Today's ride in Lanzarote. The very small red spot is Cycliste, who couldn't be bothered to hang around for photos.

Did the forgotten world highway in NZ last week. Road porn for miles. These are some photos that a better photographer took on a different day:

Is that betweeen Mirkwood and the Shire?

Whilst we're on the NZ theme:

I'd really like to go back to ride up this one day (and more importantly back down), the road up to Whakapapa.
