I will find you guys some good roads in Southern Maryland so that you can probably never use them. LOL. I feel isolated 
I will say that I have been on some cool roads in Western MD and Northern VA. Not in the S though

Joplin Rd in Dumfries/Quantico is a good one. A lot of motorcycles though, cops too sometimes. Alot of the roads through Clifton are pretty good. Not many cops back there ever. Lorton Rd is fun too, it's a short road but still a fun drive. Overall though I do like your idea. I have to agree with the others though, I wouldn't watch the videos of someone else taking a "sunday cruise", I would watch someone going balls to the wall though 
. Just my 2 cents

Or you could have a rating system based on the number of turns per mile, average speed, lack of traffic, paired with changes in elevation and also scenery.
On second thought that sounds too complicated. A video might be a better idea.

Haha, yeah... my career is mapping and modeling, so this is right in my wheelhouse.
