I have family in Mexico, MO and I've been through there. Is there a turn there that isn't a 4way??? Just kidding. I saw the ABC road names and just remembered how Missouri had that.

Which the Ozarks have got to have some decent twists in it.

For me. I love the "Suches Loop" here in northern Georgia. Which consists of GA60 to GA180(Wolf Pen Gap Rd that I'd love to make steamy hot love to right now) to US129 as they loop together.

and GA75 north of Helen is fun too.

The Gap is an obvious answer.

Haven't made it to the ozarks yet but plan on going there this spring for a while. That's crazy you know people in my hometown of 11K people lol. Small world. And yes, there are a couple of 3 way turns

pickle.of.doom 03-06-2008 11:00 PM

Anywhere paved, the smoother the better.

Yep. My grandma lives in Kirksville so we always stopped in at Mexico along the way from St. Louis. But a lot of my family lives in Missouri. I guess if you know any Barnetts that's my family.

lol nice ranger, that road reminds me of a safer version of the skyway with all the sweepers. I hate running the skyway with those rusty guardrails. I just never feel comfortable doing max speeds around those things.

marko138 03-07-2008 11:35 AM

The track.

OTB 03-07-2008 11:55 AM

Rt 9 From Hedgesville WV through Paw Paw, to Cumberland MD.

Anywhere around Seneca Rocks WV and Snowshoe.

Just about all the roads in Garrett County Md.

Rt 1 From Silver By, Mn to Ely, Mn.

Mn Rt95 from Stillwater to St. Croix Falls, WI

44/414/144 around Renovo Pa....truly fun...plus gotta stop for Renovo Chili.....

Crazy 03-07-2008 11:57 AM

well we dont have twisties worth shit around here.
But parks (like state parks) usually make for some nice riding.
And I enjoy the occasional night ride too.
pretty much wherever my friends are going I'll go.

OTB 03-07-2008 12:06 PM

Rt 71-17-502 From Fort Frances, Ontario to Kenora, Dryden and back to FF, On...Several hundred miles of undulating sweepers through Lake of the Woods (Especially around Sioux Narrows).... Last Time I was there was back in the Eighties on a clapped out GS650......went 90 miles and never saw another car....but almost hit a moose.....

OTB 03-07-2008 12:18 PM

I have two weeks off at the end of June, and will be spending at least a week of it up in Garrett County...mayhaps we can hook up.

No Worries 03-13-2008 06:13 PM

Favorite roads near Denver:
Lookout Mountain-Steep and extremely twisty.
Golden Gate Canyon-Steep, twisty and fast.
Squaw Pass-Steep, twisty road that goes to Mount Evans, the highest paved road in the world. Fun to go up, challenging to come down.

Favorite road in the Badlands:
Custer State Park-Not far from Sturgis in South Dakota. A one-lane, super-twisty road.

dReWpY 03-13-2008 06:38 PM

That's phase 3 of my 'prepare the bike for cross country'... I am currently not even started on phase 1.

t-homo 03-14-2008 09:12 PM

What is phase 1? terrorizing TWF?

sfarson 03-14-2008 10:55 PM

Nearby, this would be my favorite place to ride. A county road offering 50 empty miles of this...

Phase one is the rebuild...

Phase two is gearing up...

Phase three is doing all the little things that really don't matter...

Cutty72 03-15-2008 11:11 AM

Around the lakes area in MN, bout an hour away.

Buddy said he found a couple good routes we need to check out, about 120 miles to get to 'em, so a good day riding!

Smittie61984 05-04-2008 11:38 PM

Well on a local forum we got talking about the differences between the Georgia/Deal's Gap style roads and Western roads and I referenced DLits vid. So I decided to bump it while I was here.

Oh HELL yeah! Then swing by TWO and get a big ass burger to top off the day riding! I have made four or five trips up there in the past couple years, and I'm planning to go back in September or October. I'll post something up when I do. That place friggin' rocks!

Now, for scenery? I LOVE riding around the Keys, very mellow.

Smittie61984 05-06-2008 04:40 PM

I've never been to TWO. TWO is mainly full of a bunch of undergeared Harley riders with their undergeared kids/wife who just witnessed them down a pitcher of beer in Helen before riding on the curvy roads. Plus the Harley Riders always try to knock the sportbike riders off the road or atleast intimidate us while we pass them.

I always goes to Dale's(Gas station on 180 just above TWO) along with most Georgia sportbike/dual sport riders. He has stood by the sportbike riders for years even when our local news had some crazy witch hunt about the sportbikers in the mountains.

I always rented a Cabin at High Valley Apt, and I usually only ate at TWO. I have bought many gallons of gas at Dale's, as a matter of fact I carry a reciept from Dale's in the breast pocket of my jacket as a reminder. I never had any issues at TWO, but I was always there when the whole place was rented by The Atlantic Beach Vintage Motorcycle Club, when the place is chock full of crazy old guys on crazy old bikes even the weekend wannabe's on hogs are too scared to be there!

Smittie61984 05-06-2008 06:04 PM

I'd be down for the vintage bike(Though mine isn't a vintage bike I just love old school bikes) thing. When would something like that be?

Weekend Wannabes. You nailed it on the head. When it was January and 30degrees out they were nowhere in site.

It's usually the weekend after "true grit". Sometime in october.

I might miss out on the ABVMC Rally this year, I might be heading up there for my own ad-hoc rally, me and a good friend of mine.

Big fan of Route 100 in Vt

pickle.of.doom 05-07-2008 01:03 PM

McPherson Park Drive - Industrial drive like 2 blocks from my house. 4 Nice long sweepers, between a few factories. You will always get a few workers cheering from their break areas. Only problem is that on the other end of the road is the jail and Sherrif's Dept :D

Another is the entrance to this apartment complex about 6 blocks away. The driveway in is nice and twisty. 25mph speed limit and old folks with lap dogs galore, so its better to hit at night, its lit up pretty well.

These are my 2 local warm up spots that I like to hit while headed out of town, one or the other depending on which way I'm going :D
