Despite the name, this isn’t actually a road. It’s more like a hiking trail that’s possible to ride with a motorcycle…Well, barely, the trail is so narrow the plants growing along the sides keep whipping my legs as I go along, and the ground is treacherous with patches of loose gravel interspersed with large rocks. I go bumping and skidding down the trail as it winds its way through the forest, my eyes focused on the ground in front of me, my mind fully concentrated on riding, my muscles almost vibrating as I’m constantly adjusting my course. I would like to go slow but I find it’s easier to navigate this terrain if I keep the speed up, so I go fast as I dare, the forest flowing past me within arm’s reach; it’s simultaneously scary and exhilarating. Right here, right now, this is the feeling of adventure I always long for.
