The Video gets more interesting about 7 minutes in. I just wish one knew there was no traffic coming the other way. I also wish I had the skill and balls to enjoy this road. The surface is great loads of grip but in my own defence in a few places there are 100>200 foot straight over the edge drops.

can i offer some constructive criticism of your riding
you don't get far enough over to the right on l/h bends and tend to hug the white line and on r/h bends you don't get far enough left and apex too soon either running out to the white line early or rolling off and coasting.
just my opinion of course

:agree but only in places. In others, it is not that obvious but the rider is high enough up to see over the hedges etc to see it is clear and is making the bend as straight as possible. If it were me, knowing it was clear, I would ignore the white  lines too but Lew has some respect for the local law enforcement people :pokefun

Yes got that well wrong, to be honest I have never been a flyer on a bike. But was well out of shape there , I am not that familiar with this road. But I did get a buzz though. I have a mate here who is ex London Met Traffic (Bikes) I love following him , blind faith, just tuck it up close. Never get it as smooth and flowing as when I follow him.
I have no problems with criticism and any advice is appreciated.

I have to say I like that road and the series of bend after 9:30
