Definitely not!

Far too much traffic there :D Why were there so many other bikes on the road? That's busier than the Route Napoleon on a summer's Sunday...Good clear camera though. How did you manage to mount it like that on the bike?

This would be good but my computer will only play it on a really slow speed:augie
Going myself in September and will film the same route on a bike and hopefully meet you there in your Trabant:thumb

Hiya, well I thought it only fair that I should film some of the rest of the group I was on hols with :)

The camera is simply a little Sony Cybershot, used one of those flexible tripods tie wrapped around the mirror arm, no probs at all. Loads of awesome tarmac in that area - & spotted some nice looking trails - for another day perhaps.......?
 
A great bit of film. I'm hopefully heading off to the Pair of Knees this Saturday, all depends on the health of an elderly relative currently in hospital. I'll look out for this road, whats it's rough location?
 
Location of C1311

It heads east toward Tremp in Catalonya - N42 10.122 E0 53.692 is the town centre. Do you have a Garmin - I have some pretty good routes, happy to share pm me if you want me to mail them :)
 
This is the view you get from the 1311 pretty much along it lenght. Very scenic road and bendy too, with smooth surface. The man who built that road is a biker. No doubt.

Thanks but I've got Tomtom rider 2, but I'll try to give the road a go, looks great.
