Riding the twisty bits!
 
First attempt at posting a video here so not sure if it will work!!
This was one of the twisty stretches of the road I took to avoid the boring ride through the Sechura Desert on the Pan-American highway between Lambayeque and Piura, Northern Peru. The route is generally nice and easy, interspersed with avoiding farm animals on the road (trying to cobble together a vid of some of these encounters!), but has one lovely twisty bit in the middle ... just made for biking!! I took it cautiously though as road surfaces are not brilliant, animals appear unexpectedly - and there are occasionally other motorists who think they own the road!!

Dave, that was 3:56 of therapy for me. Thanks!

There is a very similar road just south of me, and I intend to ride it later this year, if the nasty pollen will ever stop flying.

What was the soundtrack you used? It was perfect; it reminded me of the longboarding scene from the recent remake of The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.

The soundtrack was a freebie from Youtube! It was exactly the same length as the clip, which I admit was the main reason I chose it - but it wasn't a bad fit either!!
It was called Seeger, by John Deley and the 41 players?????

Never heard of it, but I noticed that it matched the length of your clip nicely.

Thanks for posting the nice video. :) The music was perfect. :tup:
