[QUOTE="Jipster, post: 291014, member: 97"] Bend names - [FONT=Arial]Breidscheid [/FONT]revisited... [FONT=Arial]Breidscheid aka " a wide forest clearing"....The bend closest to the town of the same name ([I]not Adenau as I noted in an earlier post - jipster[/I]). Told you they lacked imagination. Breidscheid is the lowest point on the circuit. Two explanations have been suggested. First, in older German a 'Scheideweg' means a junction where one way splits into two, and 'Breit' means broad, so Breidscheid may describe a place where a wide route splits. So effectively 'broad junction'. Second, 'breit' still meaning broad and 'Scheid' means a forest strip, so Breidscheid may mean a wide forest strip. Source: Ben Lovejoy (photos are mine though :) )[/FONT] As you pan from left... downhill.... approach a sweeping lefthander.... [IMG]http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn313/therealjipster/P1010509.jpg[/IMG] as you pan right.... from a lefthander switches to a right hander climbing uphill .... somewhere down this part is another entrance to the track - SEE RED ARROW - you can exit here as well but from what I saw bloody dangerous as you are exposed on the right handside until you exit via a narrow lane... [IMG]http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn313/therealjipster/P1010504-1.jpg[/IMG] The exit here is near the Hotel An Der Nordschleife .... check out this funny but real vid on youtube of 2 guys entering the track this way... its called the "7 second 'Ring king"... a must watch! cringe-worthy stuff...
