Sometimes it is already difficult: stop and take a photo or enjoy the wonderful descent to the fullest. Of course, both would be best. But then you would have to cycle up the route again. But I can assure you: During the approximately 30-kilometer descent there is guaranteed to be one or the other opportunity to make a stop to pause for a while - even if only because the brakes have to cool down a bit.
