It felt like I was on the bike. All of the curves seemed realistic. I wonder which camera it was shot with.

Dave, you would soon get used to riding on the "other" side of the road. A friend who has driven extensively in continental Europe and South America reckons the danger period is after about three days when you can lapse back into your normal habits. Having said that we have a few fatalities down here from people who drive on your side of the road. Mainly continentals, but a few North Americans.

Love those stone walls! If they had them here there would be tons of broken spaces and a few splots on them, where cars and people got off center. Cheesy

Bicyclist won't ride on the bike path on highway 98 any more. They ride 20 feet off on the shoulder.... down here the lanes are 12" wide X 2 lanes, then another 5 feet for the bike path.... and drivers still run off the road! Cheesy
