This road was built by Italians during WW1. This little part of the world was the stage of little known, but some of the bloodiest battles in the war with more than 1.5 million casualties and estimated 6-900.000 dead.
Absolutely not true as the italian army never captured this ridge during the fighting of the WW1 (the front was some 10km to the west), but were promissed this land with the London treaty and they occupied it at the end of WW1. This road was built much later in 1938.
Another reason why is it really nice to cyle there is that only a limited amount of cars are allowed at the same time and they have to pay a fee to use the road (there is a ramp at the entrance) while cycling is free.
Great video! Looking forward to more like this.

danke schatzi
whats your bike man?
His turning while speaking into the camera makes me sick...
Okay, 11 Km long, what is the starting and ending elevations?
The road (ie the ramp and toll booth) starts at 1075 m and goes up to 2055 m. If you're by bike you're gonna start even lower, however.
Hi, long time no see.
yeah life took a weird turn for a few months.

Sam mal sem bil u mangartu pa sploh ni slab...
If she can make it up a 22 percent gradient than I suppose I can as well
Anything to beat a woman eh?
for sure you can.....don't hesitate! do it 😉
I am poor descender with no experience in alpine roads, but I didn't found this road dangerous.
I am also a bad descender and had no troubles, but if you look on the upper part beside.....there are only some bricks and on a Bike you could easily go between them If you loose the control of your bike e.g. in a case of high Speed and a flat......i had just good feeling in the Downhill, but in my meories is the main Thing: If somebody will come from the road maybe nobody will find him, because He will fall 300 m 🙈
Clean your glasses dude...!
