The pass road which, up to now, always ran along the mountain side towards North, takes a right here now towards East and enters a plateau valley. We are still on the Austrian side, just approximately 4mls behind the toll station.

|
|
Near the pass summit, at the end of the plateau valley, the pass road enters several serpentines. The picture we have taken shows today only rocks, where 15 years ago a mighty glacier was seen. We have measured 25° C in summer 2005 when riding over the pass.

My son Moritz with his Honda FMX650. His speciality is to hunt rubber cows. Thats the nick name for BMW GS, where he has lots of fun to just pass by in curves. Easy thing with that supermoto bike, even the engine has only 34PS.
