it is even better by motorcycle .. especially one that has (good)
suspension and decent handlebars. nearly forgot metzeler c45's and
sheepskin liner for the jacket can make teh trip much better, as in
more comfortable and predictable particularly during june, july, august
time of the year.

i've many fond memories of similar excursions, and teh scenary is truely
breathtaking the first time one takes "the tour" it lingers for a long
long time afterwards. gets my vote and is very highly recommended. a
must do for anyone who likes .. sorry i'm rambling on.

warm regards

jonathan
