Thank you so much for resteeming my post, dear @pixresteemer 😊
What a ride!
Thank you Ross, yes, I enjoyed every turn of this ride :)
A lot of thoughts, but looking at these streamers, in my head, it all comes down to the word - a dizzying ride! You need a very strong exposure and good health, what would stand, sitting in the saddle of a motorcycle, such a long way. With all this, you, my Dear friend @Johannpiber, have found it possible to take such amazing pictures. If I say that it is very cool, it will be a very weak word)) Good night my friend!
Good morning, my friend @barski :)
my butt still hurts, and my neck hurts too, but it was a "cool" ride, just as you said.
At first I did not want to stop, but because the toll for the road is rather expensive, I had to stop at least a few times and take some pictures - I don't know, when I'll ride this road again, but I want to do it soon, and hike a bit up the mountain to have a better view on the peak, which I barely have seen, what you will see in my today's post this evening :)
Thank you very much, and have a great day, my friend :)

Howdy sir johannpiber! wow, 9 hours of riding? That's alot of riding in one day! But the photos are stunning!
That's a lot of riding on one butt on a Harley with a hard leather seat ;) ... but thank you, that you like the photos, @janton 😊
Thank you sir johannpiber for sacrificing your time and going through that for to get some great pictures for us! Does that snow stay on the ground up there year round?
Yeah, @janton, I am doing all this to show the Steemit community some nice photos :)
No, the snow stays on most mountain peaks, but the rest will be pretty snow free and dry.
Thank you anyway, @treeplanter 😊

Thank you very much, dear @kaminchan 😊
There is also still a little bit of snow beside the road...
What wonderful shots such majestic mountains and cool to see it on a map to get an idea of how far you went to see these
Thank you JJ, but these mountains look much, much cooler when you are there, surrounded by snowy peaks, and a weather like I had it on Sunday.
Between these giants you can feel, how small and unimportant you are - you know, what I mean.
Ohh yes I know what you mean, such Grandeur in those mountains that no matter how good a photo is cannot compare with the feeling of being there in person
Exactly 😊
Nice photos of the mountain and it is really hard travel to journey Grossglockner High Alpine Road.
Thank you so much, @kamrunnahar :)
The ride there was long, and the ride back home was long and hard, but the ride up this windy alpine road was great, I enjoyed every single meter :)
