Bike Ride on Coroico Road - the World's Most Dangerous Road

From Bonnie Hamre, About.com

Called the world's most dangerous road, the route between La Paz and the small village of Coroico in the Yungas is a narrow, dirt track that has claimed thousands of lives since it was first built. A modern highway to replace the road has recently been completed, but the old road is a favorite with thrill seeking bicyclists. Enjoy this bike ride with them.
