Lewiston Grade Spiral Highway on Brompton Bicycles

GoPro video of coasting down the Lewiston Idaho grade, known as the Spiral Highway, a couple thousand vertical feet and ten miles, on our British Brompton folding bikes. I posted the entire, unedited, one gigabyte, high definition video, going down, 18 minutes long, till the battery quits. It took a three or four hours to load on YouTube. Nice camera work by Gerry. It takes a couple hours [for us] to ride to the top of the grade, and 20 minutes back down, bike rim too hot to touch at the bottom, lots of water required to ride up, not hard, just long, and great scenery... 

Brompton folding bikes are not the best choice for this application, but this is more about a couple older guys proving they still got it, on our circus, cartoon, urban subway commuter bikes, a good ride in late May 2015.
