As stated in topic, always looking forward to twisty turny roads. Post the most badass backroads in merryland (and directions if possible). Preferably ones that aren't heavily traveled.

Hmmmm... Glen in N. Potomac at night. Winding roads, 1 lane bridge, and alot of rich people's houses with sleeping rich people to wake up And best of all- no cops.

There is the infamous Quantico Cemetary road in Fredericksburg, VA.

Route 56 going up and down and up and down Afton Mountain plus Skyline Dr in Nellysford, VA.

We've got a decent little course through Pungo, North Carolina, and Chesapeake down in Southern Hampton Roads, VA.

You can always follow FF2Skip or Punisher down the interstate

The best pass within an hour or so IMO is 211 over Thorton Gap.

It's got 2 lanes going up and a 55MPH limit, and serious hairpin corners with 15 and 20 MPH suggested speeds. If you loose your rear end on this road, its gonna hurt a lot.

The Bad part is the Sportbike crowd swarms there on weekends, so does Law enforcement.

There has been a few fatalities there, one just a month or so ago, so the enforcement is pretty tight.

211 for me is just a gateway to West and many more great roads. West VA is pretty much the whole state. SW VA is also great

Pretty much all the roads in Clifton are fun. I recommend Chapel Rd.
