He does have some lucky timing with oncoming traffic.

I like the tight Italian road...

You know the old saying, "a fool and his bike are soon parted.", or something like that.

Then again, you don't wake up with those skills...

The thing is, I didn't see any real mad skills. He had a wicked fast bike that could pull wheelies through all the gears, as well as more than a fair share of luck with missing cars. The video was adrenaline pumping to watch because of those two things, but he didn't really show off cornering skills or the like, IMHO.

It looks like the western approach to the Stelvio Pass - if so I've done it in reverse, quicker, with one hand tied behind my back, on a BMW R1200GS, in a tutu, with a pillion (naked), eating porcine mushrooms, and drinking Sangria!

So there!

He was bloody quick eh? Thanks for sharing Demon..............

Cheers, SB
