R1200GS on Death Road - The most Dangerous Road in the World? | Salar de Uyuni

Death Road and Salar de Uyuni. Two stunning places in Bolivia. This is the third episode of our adventure in South America. The bikes: 2015 BMW R1200GS and 2018 R1200GS Adventure.
The Death Road is a touristic attraction today - when we got there, we saw a lot of teenagers riding down on it and having some beers at the end. If paying attention, there's nothing scary on the Bolivian Death Road. But a few decades ago it wasn't just a tourist thing. It was a connecting road between La Paz and the Yungas, there were cars and buses over there, and a lot of people died.
Salar de Uyuni - i'll never forget it. We've been lucky enough to be there in late January, when the salt desert is flooded - the view is fantastic. It's just riding on the clouds. Yeah, riding, not walking because we entered with our bikes over there. It's a bit dangerous for the electronics, I know, but it's worth it!
After Chile and Peru, Bolivia is the third country we visit on our R1200GS bikes in the South American Adventure. The next destination: Argentina.

[@alpharoadie4944]

Salt desert looks out of this world!! All the best riders!!

[@kapilbsingh]

Very nicely shot and executed the view was amazing big brother.

[@cristian.cilander1052]

Excelentes lugares y excelentes imágenes... Los espera Argentina y muchos km por recorrer allí... Gracias por las imágenes!!

[@DriveMagRiders]

Gracias Cristian. Argentina es la próxima pelicula.

[@keithpopplewell9112]

Lovely video. Just these two places are on the top of my to-ride list and you've motivated me to get my finger out. I've riden several times in the Himalayas and I must say that I agree with you that the Road of Death doesn't 'look' that dangerous in comparison.

[@DriveMagRiders]

Good to know. Because we plan going to the Himalayas.

[@iandavies6620]

That was an incredible film!

[@DriveMagRiders]

Thank you!

Brilliant video you two. Keep up the good work. You make such interesting videos.

[@kubilayylmaz1716]

Thanks for sharing such a beautiful video and experience,enjoy your ride be safe.

[@jaywhoisit4863]

A video on the ability, performance, and adaptability of these big bikes would be cool. I live in East Africa and I meet a lot of guys riding through the continent. Almost everyone who shows up on a 1200gs really are critical of the bike. Things about size, weight, and limited ability to run on crappy fuel are spoken about often. Guys who ride through on smaller bikes seem to be more comfortable.

[@FernandoFernandez-pl2nz]

Wonderful! !! We are waiting for you in Paraguay!

[@LagzCreator]

Rip brother 😭😭😭, i love all your video, i will always remembered you accent

[@idiotonwheels3349]

Awesome video lads, keep it up.

[@topixfromthetropix1674]

I'm an old fart and have ridden a number of world highways, roads, streets, and goat paths. I have noticed almost every country has it's own "Death Highway." I'm currently in Thailand and their "Death Highway" is highway 105 south from Mae Seriang to Mae Sot. Good riding and happy experiences from an old goat!
