For the thrill of the ride, Schwalbenschwanz at de Nurburgring

Great pics, I hope this one makes it. Just to be correct though, that's Stefan-Bellof-S

Schwalbenschwanz is the left hander up the hill round that distant corner.

You are correct! I've always referred to that entire section from the 18km marker on as Schwalbenschwanz as I can never get the double left hander right. Just found this - http://www.nuerburgring.de/en/fans-info/race-track...

One from me.

This was taken in Southern Ireland during my first road trip. The link to BB is Srob put us onto Healys which to this day is still one of the best places I've ever stayed. The craic started at breakfast and never stopped until last orders.

My favorite picture of my 848, shot by me. I was working from and done for the day. But as I was still on standby, I couldn't enjoy a ride. So I rolled out the bike anyway and dusted of my camera, just to see if I still know how it works... Turns out I did and this is for me a great shot with enough details to entertain.

These are by no means top quality but they're my favourites and may fit somewhere in the scheme of things if someone sees something in them.


My absolute favourite thing to do in Western Australia on a Sunday morning.


This is a man called Amy leading me across Iowa, he on his Electra Glide, me on a Street Glide. I could hear his music from here at about 80mph.



This is they, parked next to the Mississippi.


That's me, that is. At Silverstone. Honest.


This is the road up to Andorra. Don't run that plate through the DVLA, it never actually existed.

Our very own Stig showing us that his 3rd tier bunk is too small for him when we took the night train from Toulouse to Paris. The sleeper carriages were just awful on this train.

To be fair he is over 6' 5" in stocking feet so he must be a fair bit taller in boots and helmet.

Looks like a good place for big Spiders and Snakes. Sod that.

Actually, the weather is such that trail riding in Perth is pretty much a winter only pastime. That means no snakes and not that many spiders. The biggest issue is ticks. Not uncommon to find 4 or 5 of the fkers burrowed in you in the shower after a ride. Which I couldn't care less about were it not for lime disease, which is basically an injection of brain and organ eating bacteria into the blood, from a tick.

Thanks. stty PP but it was a gorgeous view. Just outside Sedbergh.
That's part of one our weekend runs. See why we've got it better than you London villagers.
Haha, I know - it was you lot mentioning the road that made me try it. Absolutely stunning scenery, just wish the roads were in better condition and there wasn't so much gravel on the corners! The road quality in Essex is much better biggrin
