Europe's top 10 motorbiking roads

[Debs]

I know the write up is from 2008 but it just popped up on the Concours 14 Facebook page, so I thought I would share.

Some of these roads I had never known about.

Interesting Debs thanks for sharing

I've ridden the Cat & Fiddle a few times its normally occupied by lots of Power Rangers though and recall some 'locals' dropping tacks and oil on the surface to try and deter bikers from using it, but that was some time ago

The Antrim Coast Road is truly stunning and I've ridden it more times than I can remember, it should be on every bikers "rides to do" list 


EDIT:  I just copied and pasted a few of those into YouTube and added motorcycle to the location.....and wow they are great

Awesome OC.

Maybe I will be able to do some of them in the not to distant future.

Ive done the Furka and most others around that area.  Trouble is ( and its not a bad thing ) is that you have to do each high pass twice.................Stopping frequently is a must for the view, so you have to ride the road back again to appreciate it.

Steve ( Mr Wolf ) would be in his element with the photography views.

Good thread 

Thank you Dave. It's always good to pass on the info as you never know who's missed the previous write up.

I only found out recently about the Hastings bike meet each May. If I'm in the country I will be popping along to it.
