    That was cool. Its on my bucket list to do.
    When it's your time to go it's your time, so don't let it catch you.

    That looked awesome! I know you are a progressive rider, so having cars playing with you at high speed must have been something new.
    On my todo list as well, so hopefully (one day) I will join you.

    How about some vids on some of the many passes you have been enjoying?

    Great vid, thanks for posting.

    I'm in Luxemburg/Germany next month and was thinking of calling in but taking my NC700X for the trip so thinking not really suitable as will be in the way of pretty much everyone, were there many (any!) slower vehicles taking a 'tour of the 'ring' rather than giving it some?

    Also what's the correct change/fee at the entrance toll?

    Thanks for the positive feedback - it felt so, so quick when I was doing it, the biggest hit of adrenaline I ever had.

    Dennis - a video of me decending Stelvio (fully loaded with camping kit) is uploading to youtube at the mo.

    Trev - an NC700X would be great on there, you'll notice 3/4 of the way round I get over to the right to let a car pass, that's what you do. The bad bit is the ring is euro26! not cheap, you buy a smart card and rub that against the toll booth, so change isn't an issue.

    Nice! I was expecting you to overtake all cars at the very beginning on the acceleration but those cars seem to be well tuned... what camera did you use?

    EDIT: ups you did overtake haha... but it took more time than I was expecting

    Brill Merv, found myself cheering you on there. You certainly gave it some on the last time going down the Nurburgring long straight. Awesome mate thanks for sharing that. Look what I missed now.
