The Blackwall Tunnel...
 

...is the bestest place to get yer rocks off :cool:. I had the pleasure of riding Nellie thru the tunnel last nite not only to pay a visit south of the river :o but particularly to listen to the Paso's race cans reverberate...
I was not disappointed :D

Any other saddos out there

Don't think I've ever ridden any of my bikes through a tunnel .. one of the downsides of living somewhere as flat as Lincolnshire I guess. I asume Blackwall Tunnel is in London somewhere is it?

Riding nelly through a tunnel eh???

At Rockingham they have a couple of tunnels under the track which are superb for some helmetless revving!

Hyde Park Corner underpass - fantastic!

Indeed it is - links north to south - the tunnel goes under the Thames so is quite long with a couple of bends.... has been renamed the Noise Appreciation tunnel :eureka: cos it's mostly tiled :D BC

I may just have to have a go at this one :sing: BC

and when you come out of the blackwall, you are 2 minutes from the limehouse link - just watch out for the speed cameras.

Try it during rush hour with loud pipes and watch the cars part like the red sea!

Try Italy.... tunnels that go on and on and on :D

Dartford Tunnel's good. Especially after Brands when there are streams of bikes passing thru. I love the sound of a V twin with open pipes on the over-run. Makes all those jap 4 cylinder machines sound like a bee fartin in a tin can!

So true - my other bike's a jap V twin/scorpion and sounds awesome on the overrun... inline 4 :lol: can't hear 'em :sing: but the Duc's the best! BC

I live 5 minutes south of the Blackwall and have been through there on many many occasions ... its quite a narrow tunnel so the noise is close ..... went through there a couple of years ago accompanied by 6 other dukes and not a road legal termi in sight ... stunning ......

Try going north around the M25 after the Brands round of WSB, going through the Dartford tunnel with a hundred or so bikes even if they are Multi's, sounds just awsome, hardly hear your self think:cool:


Chris.:burn:

Try Bologna to Florence! Man they are some serious tunnels, then 3 monsters with rather loud cans can booming past, class.

I used to always back fire our sherpa vans thru` the tunnel years ago and you can actually hear the sound wave travel along the tunnel, seriously loud!
Quite awsome really!

The north bound Blackwall is best, 'cos it's narrower and has more bends to accelerate towards and then slow down for (Get the open airbox sounding on the overrun BBBWWWWORRRRRRRRRRRRR.........) :bouncy::bouncy:

There's a new tunnel up near the top of the Pas de la Casa going into Andorra, its about 2 km long, i got a big smile and thumbs up from the toll booth operator after giving the bike full throttle through there last year:lol:

I've got standard cans but I can never resist revving it in confined spaces, even for a couple of seconds passing under a raliway bridge. Will be going as noisily as possible through Rotherhythe on Saturday. That's a really old narrow tunnel which gives a special sound too. It is such a thrill to hear that bike. I love it! Good thread BC - good to see I'm not the only noise pollutionist around :D

Yes, I went throght the Blackwall Tunnel on the way to Dibble's on Sunday, and through the Dartford Tunnel on the way home from Brands on Monday.

996 SPS, 50mm Termi's - yum.
