That was sme neat video work.  What's the actual speed limit on that road?  Looked like the autos were doing 30 to 35.  Quite a bit of residences, but that roads would probably have a 45 to 55 limit in Ark so they really weren't abusing it too badly. 

Although I didn't wonder when he was going to pass the truck in the main video.  :-) 

Bike was too loud.  I know it pisses me off when some squid lights up his exhaust in my ear when he blows past me on the highway.

Most is posted at 55. A few of old towns are marked at 35.

I grew up riding the roads in that area. Most of the time we played a game of "maintain" where you attempt to maintain the speed limit as closely as possible down these roads. Not as an average speed (easy even in the 80's) but as a constant speed, coasting the straights and railing the corners.

Not hijacking, but here's a clip which shows why you shouldn't cross the solid line.  This happened in Hungary not so long ago.
Not for the squeamish.
