This is fish hill for those without knowledge, and a youtube link shall be up shortly!

Did that route for the 2nd time on the way back from Wales today. That vid just doesn't do justice to how tight those bends are! Would be very easy to cock up - there's been what looks like a smashed up GSXR at the side of the road on that last bend for about 3 weeks now; perhaps mute testimony to how hard it is to get that bit right. At first (south/east bound) you're just on fast dual carriageway, lulled into a false sense of security, then you hit the first of 3 or 4 bends that just get tighter and tighter. I'd say you've set a challenge there Stig  :eek

Definitely not trailer territory!

I didn't notice the smashed up bike, too busy looking at the next bend.
Last right hander I briefly touched the knee, I've only touched once on that first left hander, for some reason I just never have 100% faith going up and around here, but I'm always fully loaded up!
There's a little car park at the top on the left so we'll. stop off briefly for anyone that wants to give it a 2nd go!

I've only done it going up the hill, 2 lanes, and still found it tricky. Downhill, with 1 lane? Might be even harder! I only catch the bike out of the corner of my eye cos you can't take your eyes off the road there so can't be sure exactly what it was - there were 2 bikes there yesterday, don't know if the other had stopped to rape the first, or what. Maybe they're both wrecked! :eek
