I'm shocked Hollywood hasn't had a James Bond style car chase through those roads on film yet.

I haven't touched down my knee but I did touch down the aluminum boxes on my KLR650 and had to cut 45 degree angles on the bottom to make sure it didn't happen again.

In English also, this canyon road is a portion of the Road of Death. More fatalities occur per passenger/rider/driver than on any other road. The portion you see there is nice and pretty and stuff, but there are many, many portions of that road where only one vehicle will fit and there are pull outs for others to park as those with the right of way go past. There are many areas where there are literally inches between the edge of a very narrow road and a 3000 foot drop? How do I know? I just saw a documentary of this road on Discovery HD

Not an FJR road...

Anyway, I think it is part of that road as the link says: carretera de la muerte
