George, great story! LOL.. you should be bottling that water and selling it here in the states. :) I've spent lots of time on Dirt bikes and Quads but nuthing crazy.. Last year i did a rain forest in the dominican republic for a day it was fairly calm riding.. Hills but not mountains and butts in the air :)

man... ive been on trails about the same width ...but not as hardcore as this...i didnt have to deal with the loose rocks and such...but yea, if ur willin to put urself out there on a trail...u gotta be prepared for trails like this, cause u can be on a nice save trail 1 second and 1 of these scary trails will be around the next corner....i hate myself every time i got into 1 of those...

I would never do it on a bike. Walking is fine but on a bike I would kill/shit myself.

I use to ride those trails like that in former Yugoslavia /Albania border when i was younger on some Tomos pedal style scooters .. definately not as extreme as that but still krazy when i think i bout it now .. As I've had some bad experiences with cliff sides and what not almost going over i try to stay as far away from the types of things now .. life is too short !!
