Greetings from Ramsau bei BGD, Germany.
Today, I drove the amazing Gro?glockner Pa? with my family from south to north, ending near Zell am See.
About half way down the north side, a completely disguised BMW 1er or Mini test mule passed us. I told my wife to have the camera ready, because if there is one, there will be more.
Then we were passed (going downhill!) by two E60 cars with huge, red, "BREAK TEST" stickers stuck to the trunk.
Anyway, sure enough, 1000m from the end of the Gro?glocknerstrasse, there was about 20-30 BMW test mules and support cars parked on the side of the road, with engineers all over them.
We were too slow with the camera for that group (and we had a bus behind us), but we caught something (a BMW) coming through the toll booth, and then another BMW parked on the side of the road, 7km toward Zell. I have no idea what either of them were...
Do I post the two "good" pics that I have, or watermark them first? No clue if that is necessary or not.
Let me know.
PS: 2 pic from the Gro?glockner, 1st at 2050m (waterfall) and another from the top at 2430m
