Default Drives of a Lifetime!

First off, everybody on this board quit fighting about what car isn't what you think it should be. Grab some beef jerky (screw you vegetarians), grab your woman (or man if you are bi-curious), and go fill up your car and drive one of these roads.

I've yet to visit California or Oregon, but I want to soooo bad

I was all when I saw a road listed in the Mid-A until I saw that it is 12 miles long

I've been to 5 of those. That list is definitely spot on.

I've done six of those. Great drives. Kinda gets me thinking. You know how there are people who try to hit every ballpark before they die. This could be a good goal for car people, hit every one of these before they die.

I've done all or part of 12 of them over the years. All are good and some pretty great but many times the locals can show you even better drives... and true, there are probably hundreds as good around the world.
