That makes more sense. I guess just one clip after another from the same turn made it seem like they were all happening on the same day.

Ah. That makes sense. It also looks like there's water or something running across the road in several of the shots which got me wondering as well.

this same corner is in so many videos. both cars and bikes eat it there consistently, and everyone sits there waiting and watching for it. I think it's out in cali. The car vids are better, because they flip and and go into the rails. More comical and less brutal than watching bikers eat it.

I think it is Mulholland Drive. Looks like a sweet road.
