Title: Scrubbing in new Tires & bedding brake pads.
Post by: the_Journeyman on August 13, 2012, 05:26:36 PM
1.  Bedding brake pads.  This road is awesome.  Normally, I run it up rather than down, but since I needed to bed in some new brake pads, I figured down would be the best choice!

Middle section of 151:

Lower section of 151 (hit some gravel & debris at 2:29, it shows on the video with a jolt and almost running into the other lane):
151 C (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6eiYjPjsJOk&feature=youtu.be#)

Scrubbing tires.  This is a GREAT road.  I haven't been on it since it was gravel.  Right here in the county too.

It sure is, these mountain backroads are great fun and light on traffic!
