The roads posted above are now closed due to snow and ice - not safe!

Around the capitol Oslo it's still rideable - I went for a 160 miles ride today - around 45 F  [moto]

252,000 km/seventeen years - loving it

M119 in Northern Lower Michigan, its a great road!
  - real place

I'll start with NC197.  It's not for the faint of heart, you'll need to be comfortable with gravel.  The pic is of a section that is a sequence of 6 180º turns.  A mile later the road goes grave for five miles


Next we have NC215.  Awesome stretch of road, but only when it doesn't look like this:


Here is is without snow:






Now, we've got US276 near the Blue Ridge Parkway:

North of the BRP:


South of the BRP:






Georgia 28 near Warwoman Rd:




NC209, area known as "Betsy's Gap"


For reference, the bike is in the same spot for the next two pics, still on NC209:




NC28 near Deal's Gap:


US129 just south of Deal's Gap:




Hope you enjoyed!

I love you North Carolina! 

You don't live in the Wilmington area do you? This area kinda blows for the bike.

My favorite is 666 in North PA-pure evil. I miss it greatly

Desmosedici - it's the new Paso (except the bodywork doesn't fit as well)

I live just a few miles below the WarWoman  pic on SC 28.  Every time the_Journeyman post pics it reminds me of how lucky I am to live in a temperate rain forest, a "Garden of Eden" with a race track running through it.  [thumbsup]

Mts. around here get like 2000 mm of rain a year and that snow pic on 215 is pretty common in the dead of winter.
