**Chillywater** · 07-30-2006, 10:54 AM

those guys can ride like hell...its just not a great idea to sweep into blind corners in setting up for a head on collision like they were...hope they're still alive

**wdw512** · 07-30-2006, 11:16 AM

the riding wasn't overly exciting.. (i only watched a few minutes into it, so forgive me if i missed anything that wasn't shown) but it looks about like the average sunday ride. backing it into the corners was cool but it's just a reflection of dirt-bike background or experience. a lot of the ex-dirt riders are comfortable with the bike slidin around as he was.

i was waiting the entire video for a crash... those guys skills or not need to take that kind of riding to the track

**steak nazi** · 07-30-2006, 01:31 PM

I agree 100% with this. That's some crazy riding for public roads.

Just like a gun. Problem is the time it's pointed in the wrong direction pulling the trigger

**Grandevil** · 07-30-2006, 09:44 PM

Skill without self control or good judgement is just as dead as not having any skill at all.

Well i am glad this videos are on-line... I am from Greece and this guys are really crazy. This course is on North Euvoia island. It is aprox 90 Km from Athens , so it is a near and cool getaway Sunday ride. Of course as you see there is a lot of traffic because of that... it is Sunday or Saturday and these days are the more traffic , it's more enjoyable on the other day's of the week.As you see it is a close mountain ride.I have done this course a lot of times , fast enough, but not like that!!! One of these riders is a pro running on greek bike races championships (supermoto and superbikes) and he is local the others i think i don't know them but they are local's too and know the course very good! These videos have taken 2 or 3 years ago by the support of a bike gear shop. Pretty nice that they push it over the internet! Now you learn that greek riders they are not only good lovers but prety good assmotherf*****s riders !!!! Don't they? Respect! (and they are not dead) I invite all of you in Greece to ride with our Gixs!

:ch eers

**bumblebeegsxr** · 07-31-2006, 02:20 AM

Very Nice video, they got crazy skills!!! But I leave that type of riding to those guys, The whole video I was waiting for a head on collision, or someone running off the shoulder of the road. "To each their own"!!!
