an old ligtening seeds video/BMW advert which I stumbled over at on the video at 1.08 minutes does anybody know where this road is?,
The start of the video looks alot like Hamburg , with the TV tower, that pass looks fantastic,
infact how about a list of passes good places/roads to visit sticky thread? ,
My contributions :
N202 , N5 , N85, Grand canyon France

IIRC
Castellane to Nice , to Castellane

N85 down to Grasse, you want to stop going down to Nice where it gets busy and hot and the roads aren't so great just follow the route you'll hit the N202 the twin road gorge
https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&hl=en&geocode=&saddr=Castellane&daddr=D957+%4043.682010,+6.223260+to:D11+%4043.817230,+6.094310+to:44.010596,6.222382&mrcr=2&mrsp=3&sz=10&mra=mi&sll=43.851365,6.336365&sspn=0.452579,0.933838&ie=UTF8&ll=43.900861,6.351471&spn=0.452203,0.933838&z=10&om=1
Grand Canyon , including the bit where all the Lavender/Sun flowers are grown fairly slow (ie sub 80mph) scenic route
https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&hl=en&geocode=&saddr=Dijon&daddr=N5+%4046.754600,+5.913490+to:D27%2FRue+des+Vernois+%4046.668320,+5.767700+to:N5+%4046.492730,+6.035150+to:46.420819,6.010208+to:Saint-Claude,+Jura,+Franche-Comt%C3%A9,+France+to:D436%2FRoute+de+Saint-Claude+%4046.358820,+5.788940+to:A404+%4046.268370,+5.645220&mrcr=3,4&mrsp=4&sz=11&mra=dme&sll=46.368727,6.120758&sspn=0.216524,0.466919&ie=UTF8&ll=46.432178,5.971069&spn=0.432542,0.933838&z=10&om=1
Mount brilliant where I met the Brits, all roads around there are mountainous twisty and dangerous all roads around there are good, lots of hairpin climbs , dangerous though and weather is changable very easy to get lost
https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&hl=en&geocode=&saddr=Oyonnax&daddr=46.025575,5.517883+to:Chambery&mrcr=0,1&mrsp=1&sz=9&mra=dpe&sll=45.91506,5.81602&sspn=0.873253,1.867676&ie=UTF8&ll=45.855586,5.820007&spn=0.874185,1.867676&z=9&om=1
Onyeux to Chambery , the back route where you get to the lake this is where I was followed by a cop , it might have been the road to the left or right (it was criss crossed by train tracks)
https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&hl=en&geocode=&saddr=D954+%4044.486800,+6.324580&daddr=44.710634,6.741486+to:Avenue+Aristide+Briand%2FD101+%4045.071460,+5.771660+to:D902+%4044.769900,+6.736880+to:D900+%4044.143680,+6.294410&mrcr=0,1&mrsp=1&sz=10&mra=dme&sll=44.755511,6.703033&sspn=0.445662,0.933838&ie=UTF8&ll=44.826656,6.339111&spn=0.890218,1.867676&z=9&om=1
Very scenic route , fairly fast gets very very narrow at some points , I stopped at Briancon for the night though , the route from Briancon would be very very good in the dry

seen something very similar on the border between France/Italy near Swtizerland
EDIT maybe you should come with Ram_doom's trip next year around June? .
Current interests:
Ram_doom
McGee
Andy_C
Me
That guy in Saudi right now Quacker_boy
Maybe Res (still on L plates?)
Pos Trev
Maybe TobyR if we can teach him to corner quickly
and another CBR600FX, I currently forget who,
Though I probably peel off part way through and rejoin the main pack somewhere along the route. Or I may have two tours next year.

Well me and Gman were chatting about Touring on Saturday. I think we're both up for a trip of some kind. I've been dying to go touring since I got my little 125... Just never felt like my bike was suitable!
I'll have to wait and see what the plans are before I make up my mind.
