I think we had all three alternatives Ed, it's a VERY undulating road, not to mention extremely steep and very twisty. Did I mention narrow?

It's so steep the road builders can't get road rollers up there so the surface is quite rough.

A couple of Video's which give a slight feel of the conditions. The language in the first video is a little... earthy? Turn the sound down if you find it offensive.

35 seconds into the first video was our biggest 'moment' The road surface has completely broken up at that point now and we had a heavy landing on two nearside wheels but no big deal, the drop was behind us.
