What's your favorite road?
Wed, 06/03/2009 - 2:49pm
Pub and I just got back from a 5500 mile road trip (three weeks on the road), and we found some awesome roads to drive along the east coast. I now have a new favorite -- hwy 129 from just north of Atlanta up to Knoxville -- there's a section of it called the "Tail of the Dragon" which has 318 curves in 11 miles (no joke). I've never seen a road that compares, and I've driven many...so now I'm curious -- what are your favorite roads to drive? They could be near your home, or far from it, either way -- but what are the ones that make you white-knuckle the steering wheel and push your car to the limit?

Sounds like a great drive. I wish I had the time. I drove that route heading north out of Alabama a few years back it it was great.

I really like this road. Not only is it fun to drive, but it is some of the most beautiful country in the world.

I love Hwy 1 through Golden BC - wicked switch backs and you are basically driving on a bridge, with a whole lot of nuthin beneath ya - some of the best scenery there, but some of the worst cops too...

Eh, roads are lame, give me a mountain or a mud hole anytime. If I had to make a choice I would have to say any of the Farm to Market roads winding through the Hill Country around Austin TX.
And your Hummer can make a mountain? lol. Just pulin ur chain man. H3 looks good.
I'd have to say Rt 66 is always a good choice, but locally, It's 425/ Woodbine rd. Great scenery, awesome turns, but it needs repaved. Typical PA road.
