Hey guys,
I took the bike out to Snake Road on saturday and I was kinda disappointed. I live practically on Miami Beach off of 79th street and Snake Road is the first exit after the toll on 75 West. Needless to say it took me close to an hour to get there. Once I did it was about maybe 4-5 miles of curves. Granted it is the longest set of contiuous connected turns I've been on in South Florida but after reading different reviews I guess I was expecting more. The speed limit is 45 but you have to be going at least 65 to even start really leaning into them. Then after that it's back to straight and narrow. It was a beautiful day and it's always cool to be out in the Everglades so overall it was a nice ride, just kinda let down I guess. Are there any other areas that you all know of that are fun to ride? I've copied the link below that shows where Snake Road is. I didn't do the whole loop just the last part.

Agreed with the general dissapointment. The best roads in Florida are much further north or Homestead and PBI.

call me a parking lot race if you want, but i have found that some of those commercial parks here in Broward have some nice twisties in them. like behind Ikea has some quick S turns and what not. but I would do a satellite veiw in google maps to see if you have some in your area.  Just watch out for the  Police

Try Mt. Dora, but not on the weekends.
