I took this picture when I was in Germany this summer. Unfortunately the trees block a lot of the twisties but you can get the idea of this great road. There was a ton of motorcycles going up and down this road while I was trying to get the picture. The whole two weeks there I only saw one S2000 in the little town of Trier - a yellow one.

Wait wait wait,, If you think that this road is twisty, then--> OH MY GOD! USA must be totally different than the rest of the world!

I knew that you don't have a lot of twisty roads, but this IMO is " lack of corner"

no, that's not considered much of a twisty road, even in the US- our highways have more "twisties" than that road!

A few pictures of my local roads, back when my MR2 was stock and looking good. I can't wait to get out there and drive these twisties again!

nivek2002, if you are driving..you will find loads of roads in and near the Swiss Alps.

If you enter from France, heading towards Italy you will have to go through Switzerland. You have the choice of going through tunnels, or over the top...the scenary is spectacular.

I've done it in a 911 Cab which was an ambition since being a small boy.

I don't have the detail on the road pictured but roads like this are hard to avoid in the Alps.

If you want fewer bends and more speed, try the Massif Central in France....no traffic, great road surfaces which are perfect for the S. Traffic cops only fine you for speeding which is ok with me.

Happy Days !!
