The Alps

Just got home. Put 1513 miles on my 135i. What a rush.
Here are a couple of picks. More later. (took over 1500)

Gotta love Europe. Looks amazing!

GQ 135i · 07-14-2008, 11:16 AM

Welcome home Doyle!

Amazing pics.

It was great meeting you in Munich.

My dad and I had a great time so now I am working on him to buy a BMW so that we can do it all over again.

How did we not find this road when we were cruising?!?!!?

Jockey · 07-14-2008, 05:56 PM

Wow, those are some roads

juiced135 · 07-14-2008, 10:26 PM

What's going on in picture 1 with the animals?

Mating season?

RobLS · 07-15-2008, 01:59 AM

The angle of that last pic makes it look scary. But otherwise, very nice.

From here, the cattle appear to be chatting, perhaps they're chatting about mating. :wink: His pick-up line? Mooo...:biggrin:

Mountain roads can take some 'getting-used-to'.:eyebulge:

Steve135i · 07-15-2008, 10:17 AM

Crazy roads. Very cool.

WhiteOne · 07-15-2008, 11:02 AM

Spugenpas was great fun...

icedragon · 07-15-2008, 11:18 AM

Great pics! Reminds me of that Top Gear episode when they drove 3 supercars to Switzerland.

cynical1 · 07-15-2008, 12:41 PM

I did that drive at night in my GMC Envoy... man, that was a nasty drive! I'd much prefer to take the BMW there! It was probably an awesome drive with the "1"

WhiteOne · 07-16-2008, 12:57 PM

2 more pics. The 135i 6MT was like a dream on these roads. I could heel-toe shift when I wanted or pick a gear and drive it like an automatic. Awesome...

WhiteOne · 07-16-2008, 01:00 PM

Did anyone notice the sign in the 4th picture? Seems so right...

MrRoboto · 07-16-2008, 04:51 PM

^^^Good eyes!

Mystiqueskillz · 07-16-2008, 08:03 PM

Damn that looks like a crazy drive!

Saw that too. I do miss living in Colorado even though those roads were still nothing like that.
