Freaking crazy. I hate passing on a double line and rarely do. But sometimes you have to unless you want to get stuck behind grandma for 30miles on some nice twisties.

Just curious but when riding on twisties how often do you have slower cars pull over for you? I didn't have but 1 pull over for me at Deal's Gap and on US64 heading west of Highlands, NC I had literally every car pull over for me and I wasn't even trying to ride fast. It was crazy.

That also reminds me of a couple of videos I tried finding a while back. One was of these two guys in Europe in which one of the guys was passing on a curve on a double yellow line and side swiped a car and kept on going. Another was of two guys on Supermotards who had insane driving skills but where passing between cars on double lines doing wheelies and weaving doing wheelies.
