Agua Verde Road video

motoged - 2-3-2015 at 10:47 PM

Here is a ride down to Agua Verde....it's a long ride down (about 45 minutes on the bike).....at around minute 24 is where the Gulf Of California comes into view....for those who are getting bored getting there ;D...and where the road narrows along the mountainside.

Ged when was this recorded?

This Christmas the road was construction finished to about 10 km with no sign of the pavement extending any further. The new surface was good but the hurricanes had caused some edge damage in places.

This video was recorded the second week of January, 2014....

Nope, didn't ride down to the playas that trip....am saving that for when I can camp there for a few days sometime.

WOW - that new pavement, where you're paralleling along the side, didn't exist three months ago. Black Death slithers on ...

Stuck,
I recorded that a year ago----January, 2014,,,,,the pavement has been improved since my ride then ....but likely still ends at the ranchos just west of the cliffside road section...

A great locale, for sure.

Ah, OK, that's what was going on.

Really boring...don't know why I watched the whole thing.

I know some folks won't be too interested....but life is kinda like that...I offer the video as a recording of what it looks like....no CGI, vampires, or crashes.....just the facts.

Some folks wanted to know what the road was like....this gives them a bit of an idea.

Some of us just want to share our interests....knowing that not every one cares...


Glad you watched the whole thing....there will be a test on Monday :biggrin:

It would likely be more interesting goosing it up to 60 :biggrin:
