Oh man. I miss that soooo much. I would love to do that road at 4:00am on a moonlit night. What a buzz! Fantastic video with some great shots. Riding was also excellent and not being afraid to use the WHOLE road where you could was great to see. That white line down the middle is NOT a wall and it should be crossed if taking a bend will be made safer and the law allows. I felt like I was riding down there with you and you can't get better than that. In my head I was making every down shift, using engine braking to max effect before touching the brakes, selecting the right gear in my head long before the bend came up. Picking my breaking spots and road position. In other words, getting into the "Zone" along with you. But to ride that at night when the road is almost certain to be clear and oncoming traffics lights could be seen a long way off would be such a joy. Damn. I wish I had a bike again! Alas, no money buggers that idea up but thank you for letting me ride on the back of yours. Great stuff Baron. Cheers.
Looking at this video, I sure do miss the Alps. I was there myself, although in Austria, at the end of August and September. August was magnificent with temperatures up to 24°C on the mountain and 32°C in the valleys. Can't wait for next year.
Great job! I really love your videos. You are the first person to inspire me to strap a camera and a mic into my helmet (AGV) and go out and talk to myself! Keep making great videos and first rides and you will have me happy! Thanks and hello from California!
I'm a few months away from moving continents and am planning a last bike trip to the Alps to say goodbye (for now). I've been a few times and it's such an experience.
me and a few mates did that road and a few others like the furka pass and grossglockner pass back in July 2015 using 3 1970's cars there lovely places so clean and fresh and some unbelievable views.
I love how your body positioning habits translate to the GS. I'd be a lazy arse and not move on that big comfy seat. Bonus points for the Road Rash comment. Loved the music in that game too.
I heard you say to yourself "Look through the turn". You don't have any problem doing that mate. Your racing background really shown through in this video as you looked well though the turn and you shifted your body weight and handled that big ass bike with ease. Well done!
Awesome video, awesome ride, awesome scenery. Can't wait to take my big ol' Bertha out there.. Next year it's going to the Dolomites, so I'll have to wait until 2017.. :(
awesome vlogg Mr Baron, I have the same bike over her in Oz, I still love the "pop" of the quick shift pro both up and down the gears. I'd be really keen for you to do a vid of your camera and mike set up as it was crystal clear with nearly zero wind noise. Ride safe
baron my cousin lives in switzerland, he had a 636 and lost the front goin round a bend like the ones in the video, luckily only the bike went down the side of the mountain as he wasnt goin that fast! otherwise awesome video like usual and awesome place to live!!
4.09 ' You never know whst is around the corner'. You should always drive at such speed that you always know what is around the corner! Just a few years ago , I met some one around the corner. Luckily my bike could fly through hedges, which was the safer option, in those 2 to 3 second than head on over the top leaving my bike going backwards whist crumpling in to the cars front engine block. A few close shaves taught me to drive like an old man.
love this video man. i rode there myself with my motorcycle on a vacation with my father. Did you see the large graffiti painting on one of the dam walls. Where you stopped to turn of the camera's we went for a bite under the red and white parasols there. Keep up the good vids and ride safe. Greetz from belgium.
I hate to confess but after we met me and Womble have both bought the flight vest as it looked so cool!! Now you have shown it people will know we copied you lol
Your video was decent, but i mostly subscribed because i dig that intro music of yours :D (and because you were riding the grimsel pass in my home country ofc)
Hey BVG, not sure when or if you'll be going back to the grimsel but are you aware of the panoramastrasse to oberaar? There's a set of traffic light that are on green for an hour, then red for an hour as the road is very narrow. Looks amazing. Can't believe I knew nothing about it and rode right past when I was there 😣
you should mount your rear camera on a gimble so it shows just how far you are leaning over. The camera will stay level and you will lean in the shot.. It'd be a really cool shot to see.
beautiful ride , but Baron I now need to see a video from you with the Road Rash music , that was the Shit back in the day, track or mountain footage would suit. keep up the great videos !
Hello again Mr. Von grumble. Will you ever do a video with the GS' OFFroad? like you did with the GSXR.. Also which bike you enjoy the most? GS? I mean all-around?
Nice one....did you see the special guardrail just on the bend before the first tunnel? twenty odd years ago they were different guradrails then and a biker overdone it.....he fell about 7 meters don there.....glad you had a good time and no accident.. Next time give me a shout, please.....RSMF
Haha, this vid made me think how would I react on riding the same hill down on the 'wrong side' of the road... Bet I would scream like a little girl in every corner 'shiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, shiiiiieeeeeetttttt'! :D Nice views!
Promised this a while ago - sorry for the delay...
+BaronVonGrumble Two videos in one day what is this
+Replicated this is the Matrix.

Two Baron videos in a day. This must be Christmas.
+Phil Tonic +BaronVonGrumble you two should do a Eurotrip together. Both of you like long daytrips ;)
Watching this with goosebumps as I plan my trip across the Alps from Ireland to North Africa next July...😎
Baron, I'm stunned. Such immense beauty! Thank you for sharing. I started my day with this video. Many thanks.
Great camera angles. Love it. What a beautiful country.
You're an excellent ambassador for motorcycles. Thank you.
Oh man. I miss that soooo much. I would love to do that road at 4:00am on a moonlit night. What a buzz!

Very nice 3-cam edit transitions BvG !!!
Sweet Descent views to the Treeline, &
Down to the Tunnels/Waterfall !!!
;)
Thx for Share
The footage was well worth the wait! Epic scenery!
Amazing the diffrence between the GoPro and the other cameras. Its SO much better quality
Looking at this video, I sure do miss the Alps. I was there myself, although in Austria, at the end of August and September. August was magnificent with temperatures up to 24°C on the mountain and 32°C in the valleys. Can't wait for next year.
Oh damn thats a gorgeous view
Beautiful videography. Stunning.Well ridden.
I did this tour three months ago and its been one of the best rides of my life so far! The corners are really scary though.
Great job! I really love your videos. You are the first person to inspire me to strap a camera and a mic into my helmet (AGV) and go out and talk to myself!
Keep making great videos and first rides and you will have me happy!
Thanks and hello from California!
One of my favourite local passes. Glad you enjoyed it :)
thats a bucket list road i want to ride. good show BVG.
I would love to ride the road and get photographs of those amazing views, such a beautiful place.
I love the Grimsel pass, been over it 4 times now. You had slightly better weather than we had this year.
Double bloody upload.
I'm a few months away from moving continents and am planning a last bike trip to the Alps to say goodbye (for now). I've been a few times and it's such an experience.
Man, that is gorgeous. I miss those colours in Europe.
Was there 5 Years ago...Grimsel Pass, San Bernardino, Großer St. Bernhard,....the Swiss Alps are awesome to travel on.
me and a few mates did that road and a few others like the furka pass and grossglockner pass back in July 2015 using 3 1970's cars there lovely places so clean and fresh and some unbelievable views.

Bloody fantastic mate; the scenery and the camera angles. Love the sped up part stuck being a caravan haha!
Great footage. Tried to drive it this year, just a few weeks ago. Got there just in time for them to close it due to snow. Always next year...
I heard you say to yourself "Look through the turn". You don't have any problem doing that mate. Your racing background really shown through in this video as you looked well though the turn and you shifted your body weight and handled that big ass bike with ease. Well done!
That scenery looks like a massive matte painting.
+Vikas Acharya liking the VFX reference :)
It's been a while. Good to see you back mr.Baron. 😜
That back view angel is fantastic!!!
amazing video, especially from the rear camera!
Awesome video, awesome ride, awesome scenery.
Can't wait to take my big ol' Bertha out there.. Next year it's going to the Dolomites, so I'll have to wait until 2017.. :(
What is this magic?! two baron videos in one day!! Christmas has come early
You've got some mad skills, my friend. You make it look so easy!
Ron C nothing hard about it
I drove it yesterday all the way from Brienz up to Münster and back. Nice place to stop at the top.
Looks amazing for touring, love Switzerland!
I'd say in terms of speeding fines france is better switzerland are nazis
+The Chavinator you just have to obey the first rule: always speed where the locals do...... ;)
the swiss police hide cameras behind trees in known motorbike areas
+The Chavinator are you telling me or the others?....i know, because obvious reasons....
alrighty mate go speeding in switzerland then!
Wonderful footage Baron.
Beautiful scenery thanks for sharing
Great place to ride! Thanks for sharing
FANTASTIC vid, thank you!
really relaxing to watch
awesome vlogg Mr Baron, I have the same bike over her in Oz, I still love the "pop" of the quick shift pro both up and down the gears. I'd be really keen for you to do a vid of your camera and mike set up as it was crystal clear with nearly zero wind noise.
Ride safe
So nice I'd love to go there next year on my triumph.
Awesome video! Absolutely love it. Give more!
baron my cousin lives in switzerland, he had a 636 and lost the front goin round a bend like the ones in the video, luckily only the bike went down the side of the mountain as he wasnt goin that fast! otherwise awesome video like usual and awesome place to live!!
I played so much Road Rash as a kid, a lot of memories with my older brother.
Absolutely beautiful area!
Love this place! Everyone should visit it at least once in their lives!
There's two thing you would never find in Florida. Mountains, and winding roads. That was a nice ride.
Forget about knee down, pannier down is where it's at!
where the fuck have my side paniers gone... Ohh yeahh
landscapes and excellent road ... very good
This must be the most terrifying and yet quite a fun road to ride on. I'd be bricking it every corner in case the front slipped out or something.
Absolutely stunning. No room for error for sure. If they had a pass like that here they'd prob stick a 30 limit on it like the nanny state it is lol
I NEED to ride Grimsel Pass!!!
Dear Baron, if you like this kind of twisty roads with great views, you should definitely check out Gran Canaria's mountain roads, absolutely amazing.
I like your protection man. Nice riding.
now that is very very beautiful place man this is very nice dude etienne from south africa
we are always at Innertkirchen. perfect placenta between susten and grimmsel. which one do you like most?

Epic scenery :) Nice camera angles too!
Great vid, I did that little gem last year
that was gorgeous.
amazing video and scenery. Thanks for sharing. Do you have a video on St Gotthard pass?
Nice camera angles, great vid
Baron you are my hero. Never change
Great ride, similar to the Rocky Mtns in Colorado. LOL Burp at the end.
I hate to confess but after we met me and Womble have both bought the flight vest as it looked so cool!! Now you have shown it people will know we copied you lol
+Lamb Chop Rides haha - we could start some kind of private security vigilante group on bikes.
That gear do, making you look like you're gonna go invade another planet. Jizztastic views
Every time I watch one of your older vids you created whilst mounted on a GS, it makes me a bit sad. I miss my GS.
That was awesome, makes me want to go to europe even more!
Great camera view
Just love your videos man, makes me so jelaous!
Im so getting a sport/touring bike for next season - good bye old shaky one-stroke MT03!
Lovely job
heck yes I remember road rash on ps1! one of my favourite games as a kid +BaronVonGrumble
I know what you mean about going downhill, did the Pyrenees last year and always felt more confidence going up for some reason
Absolutley stunning, I must go there :-D
13 minutes of beautiful scenery and pristine roads capped off with a crotch shot.
This is brilliant!
what a scenery!
Your video was decent, but i mostly subscribed because i dig that intro music of yours :D

The hills are alive with sound of Grumble.
Hello again Mr. Von grumble. Will you ever do a video with the GS' OFFroad? like you did with the GSXR.. Also which bike you enjoy the most? GS? I mean all-around?
what great scenery :) pity about those ugly mountains and villages ;) thank for posting this cause that is beautiful :)

BaronVonAnxiety has a good ring to it when you're constantly imagining plummeting to your death...
Nice one....did you see the special guardrail just on the bend before the first tunnel? twenty odd years ago they were different guradrails then and a biker overdone it.....he fell about 7 meters don there.....glad you had a good time and no accident..
Next time give me a shout, please.....RSMF
Dammnnnn. Helmet is pretty fly for a while guy
+Squid WithGear Your name and profile is pretty fucking funny (:
Awesome video.
looks great for cycling, how good are you on a peddle bike +BaronVonGrumble?
Haha, this vid made me think how would I react on riding the same hill down on the 'wrong side' of the road... Bet I would scream like a little girl in every corner 'shiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, shiiiiieeeeeetttttt'! :D Nice views!
Agreed. My rear iris closes just watching this.
Keep up the good work!
