its mostly the bikes that fly around it and dump, we(me/wifey and reconquestsi) stoped at deal’s gap(restaurant/resort) at the bottom of the mountain, and they have a tree named “wall of shame” and there are a bunch of bike parts stuck to it from dumps LOL. we actually saw a bike on the side of the cliff on the way back up and police were directing traffic, hope he was ok. Its fun but VERY dangerous!

basically yeah, it was route 74 or 72 or something…we got some old guy at the gas station and said “give us the twistiest route to carlisle” and he sent us down this road…akkord got it all on cam, but hes in boot camp so i doubt he would be around to post it.

it was SUPER twisty, guardrails the whole way down, and no center lines.

Agreed! That and people who decide to scream through it the first time they drive it. I wouldn’t dare “attack” that stretch of road until I knew it like the back of my hand. With any chance of oncoming traffic though, I’d only drive it at a leisure pace.

Not a bad video. The sparks from the brakes were kinda cool.
