Hello guys!
No matter to feel abused. I do not list all my published videos. But here I will provide the newest clips which I uploaded yesterday to Google Video.
The first clip is not taken by myself. A buddy of me rides behind me when we're crossing the country for a coffee at the Torfhaus (well known biker rest in the Harz range nationalpark). On the way we passed over the Kyffhaeuser range. It is a very small area with only one mountain and some hills. The road passes nearly over the top (the highest point is a monument for the old german imperator Barbarossa in the 12th century). One times a year the road was closed for a hillclimb race by the local motorsport club in cooperation with the ADAC (translate: common german automotive club). The racetrack is in reverse direction the part from Kelbra to the toppoint (where you hear the horn in the video). In 2005 the road was completely closed for a new surface and adding some security features. 2006 it was reopened with the hillclimb race. Its now a really well surface!
The hill is very popular to the local heros and tourists. Most times lovely called the Kyff. You can also find many videos on Google about this track. These boys are the best and beat me with 26 seconds on best timings: uphill, downhill. At weekend there is no good racing - too many people. We had our ride on wednesday, 2007 april 25th.

The next four videos where taken belong our annual FJR meeting in the Dolomites this year (2007 Oct. 2nd). The last day my buddy Tom and I leave the daisypickers to do it our own way in low-altitude flight.
h34r: This is the story of Tom and Troy as TnT in Southtirol - Rock the hills.
Leaving our hotel (mapview) at the Karerpass (passo di Costalunga) between Rosengarten and Latemar first we pass the vale of the Etsch (Adige) river (Eggental, Val d'Ega) on our way from Deutschnofen to Bozen (Bolzano). Most times here is many traffic and there are high service costs for the goverment to keep the road healthy (falling stones from the rockwalls). So they drill a lot of tubes and next year the panoramic road will be closed for public traffic. :angry:

After Bozen (Bolzano) we choose the Mendelpass (passo della Mendola) to climb. There are not so many altitude meters to override but it is a very fine road. With it's new surface in 2006 you can join the corners full of pleasure. Most hairpin bends are not so sharp and have a good radius for our FJR.

Near noon we arrived the Gampenjoch (passo delle Palade) where we take our lunch. The road isn't very spectacular. Less altitude rises/falls and no hairpins. After lunch we become a bit weak and do it the smoothly.

Our last passroad in Italy was the Jaufenpass (passo Giovo). Here you have corner to corner and it is very pleasant to fight for speed here. I was very offend by my camera which ends the tape just one mile before the highest point of the passroad. But none will look for the cam on such a hot road. I'm sorry you have lost the panoramic road at the last yards where the road is stamped in the rock on the left side and having a phantastic panorama view to the right side.
