    I do not. Looks like fun though. I don't see a location in the description, would that be out in BC somewhere?

    Mountain driving~no, it's not too bad, on a real two-lane, with markings but with no ACUTE angles! I'm no wimp, been doing this since late 70's / early 80's, but that?!?!? SHEESH. I broke a sweat just watching it. The videos the wife comes up with in my down time, sometimes give me nightmares! LoL.
    Of course, Canadian drivers (POV's) are WAY more courteous to semi's than here in the states. I used to haul into Ontario a few years back; and besides customs (of course) the courtesy amongst drivers (and even 4-wheelers!) blows the $h!t outta the waters here. Maybe it's changed, but that's my recollection.
    You are in BC, @nate980 ... i'm sure you've driven that road. Do the POV's really "move over" and stand-by until you pass?
    Kudos to y'all. Fer sure, fer sure.
