many vehicles travel on these little dirt roads, up and down dale and come a cropper, it wouldn't take much, a little wheel spin and away you go.
I have travelled through Greece and many other ports where the only way to get A-B is by bike or car, on mountains like that, on one trip my friend had her eyes shut tight, we were centimetres from the edge and one slip, and its goodnight

they know the risks, it looks a well travelled route. I wonder where it is in China.

Radwanderung isn't a place .It means cycle tour .

Germany/Austria, was it? Well, I wasn't far wrong. I don't really see China bothering to create, and keep up, mountain tracks like that.

puts me in mind of a certain road in Bolivia, where lorrys have to go regularly. I´m sure someone will find it for us. If not i´ll have a look later

And there was I thinking that a cycle trip down the Long Mynd in Shropshire was hair raising.

not so hairraising, but most enjoyable to watch, esp from the 3rd minute on
