What you won't find in my car is a coffee, cigarette and a cell phone. What you will find is a driver; imagine that, a driver in a vehicle. What an effing concept!

A car has to do more than just perform; it has to stir your soul!

A true driver's car does not have cup holders.

Good music to the video.

That YouTube contributor certainly picked a good user name; nohumdrumlife. There are many ways to see and really experience the world; one of the best ways is from the seat of a motorcycle.

For those with high-speed, a really well made video by Dirk Schäfer of Motorradkarawane showing some of the great roads in the Dolomites...

The Kaiserjägerweg is another great road just south of Levico Terme, a road I've taken to get to the SS 46 shown in the first post...nice and narrow and with great scenery into the valley below...

I wish I was on a motorcycle when I drove the Coronado Trail.  However, the Hyundai Azera I drove was a real treat and it's gated shifter was put to good use.  ;D

Quite reckless, but they do have very good control and skill. I'd hate to come off the way they are dressed.

Not my video, but it is a road I drove in 2006. Location: on the island of Corsica from Porto Vecchio to Zonza on the D368.

For anyone out there that rides motorcycles, most of you have heard of Deals Gap.  Here's a great video of a well ridden Honda Gold Wing, being filmed by another Wing.  They're riding the Dragon, as it is also known.
Put the sound on and you'll hear their pegs scraping.  These guys can ride and often put sport bike riders in their place.
