The Russia Altai


This was just sensational riding territory, the best yet I think. Beautiful tight mountain/hilly roads and fast sweeping bends with very little traffic. The roads in the Swiss alps are certainly smoother but are full of other vehicles. On these type of roads Des really performs well with plenty of 'grunt' between corners he can easily keep up with the more powerful big BMW bikes. I spent the day jousting with Grant, a sports bike rider and it was just wonderful. Just what I needed after the previous five days of tedium. :-)
