Have never driven or ridden or walked this, but I've just received an e_mail. It gives me the ebbie jebbies if I borrow ourlaw's words. Stremnaya Road is situated in Bolivia ... the e_mail says.

I've ridden a similar road here in Switzerland - the Klausen Pass route is very similar.

Thanks you a~ll who have posted and viewed here. Have reached the initial goal (100 Replies/2000 Views). Please keep posting for the winter season here (almost no riding for a chicken rider, me but playing with a pc).

I spent the weekend riding in the Hida area in Japan. Everything was turning into a beautiful autumn color and it was just awesome!

OK. I'm going to try to post pics. Forgive me if I can't get it right.

outlaw · 10-24-2006, 08:02 PM

I'll tell ya Rice Burner that rode in Bolivia is amazing. I've never been there, but would love to ride it. I also appreciate the pics from you and Kay from Japan. what a beautiful country.....

Samurai · 10-25-2006, 07:54 PM

Back from the Tateyam-Kurobe Alpine Route - quite an experience changing means of transportation 7 times in a day to reach the other side of the mountains. The last photo (the snow walls) is a poster in the tourist information center.

Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route

c50tiger · 10-25-2006, 09:54 PM

Everytime I think RB has shown the coolest places in Japan, he shows up with more

And now Kay is joining in... I'll be an expert on Japan riding routes before I ever have a chance to actually get there

Telmo · 10-26-2006, 03:42 AM

Hi fellows,

c50tiger just said it all, we're going to be Japan experts thanks to Rice

Thank you Rice for sharing all these great images with us, but gotta tell you...

That poster with the snow walls is just awsome

I'm just imagining myself riding there

now THAT would be a COOL ride

**inspiron** · 10-26-2006, 05:23 AM

You mean like this?

kay · 10-26-2006, 10:19 AM

Hi, Jerry (outlaw), c50tiger, Telmo and Inspiron!
The next step....just come over and see for yourselves!
By the way, there are rental bikes here so all you need to do is get on a plane and join us! (I know it's easier said than done)

Last weekend, I had lunch at a VERY old soba (Japanese noodle) place that was build back in the 1800s. The entrance area, they told me, was built in 1811!! The food was not only great, they had what they called "riders' special" where you can get a BIG portion with the price of a normal one, if you arrived on bikes. Great place!

The second pic is a Wasabi field I visited.

kay · 10-26-2006, 10:21 AM

Inspiron, you actually rode here?!

**inspiron** · 10-26-2006, 10:35 AM

No, I've been to Tokyo once (one week, on business), but the picture above was taken on the Grimsel pass in the Swiss Alps in June 2005.

Kay, you reminded me of this Budweiser Commercial: ''Whassup Wasabi''
Hey stupid RB, this the board for posting pics.

c50tiger · 10-26-2006, 11:51 PM

Trust me, Kay - RB has been reminding me fairly regularly that I need to be saving my frequent flyer miles for the trip

Hadn't been for that pesky trip to Las Vegas I'd be about 50,000 miles closer

And RB - I promise I'm gonna get the pics of the ride to the Skip Barber Motorsports Park posted as soon as I can get copies from the girl who remembered to bring a camera. She was supposed to burn them to a cd or something for me, but I haven't heard from her since the ride
