Swiss Motorcycle Ride

We went on hands down the most incredible motorcycle ride ever. And we though the Kangamagus Highway in NH was cool- not at all compared to Susten Pass through the swiss Alps. The other cyclists are insane- they lean into the steep, sharp, switchback curves; toes practically rubbing into the pavement, like it's no big deal. We rented a BMW bike that was light and comfortable- jon might have to trade in his Suzuki cruiser when we get home! Anyhow, the Susten pass goes up through the mountains until you are in the snow caps and passing glaciers. It was so scenic and steep, you have to do one full nod "yes" to percieve the entire height of the canyon to the mountain tops. We drove through tunnels that blended in so naturally with the mountain that there was vegetation and waterfalls coming of the top and sides. We came back through Farka and Grimsel Pass and the three billy goats gruff with bells on were walking in the middle of the steep mountain road. We also passed a cow standing on a garage, like it thought it belonged there. It rained on us a bit and we were cold from the elevation, but so enjoyed the scenery. I took some snapshots along the way. This was certainly the most scenic way to cover a lot of ground, via motorcycle. You should try it!
