Western NC checking in!

Lots of curvy fun roads with smooth blacktop all around this area.

I like US 64 from Rutherfordton to Chimney Rock, then NC9 from Bat Cave to Black Mountain.

Curvy, gorgeous views, some passing zones (for the inevitable tourist driving 15 below the limit), and smooth surfaces.

Lots more great roads in this area... Just about every 2 lane highway in the mountains offers similar challenges and rewards.

Between potholes, traffic, cyclists, pedestrians, and speed cameras... driving pretty much sucks here.

I am in Frederick, MD:
-Hamburg Road, down from or up towards Gambrill Park Road.
-Ijamsville Road southward.
-Shookstown Road coming from Gambrill Park Road.

It isn't really the windy-ness, but more so the quick changes in pavement elevations and unevenness of the roads. Good luck :-)

Just wanted to stop in and say hello to a fellow Frederick resident. I lived there many years and now I am in Florida. Must say the roads up north have many more twisties then we have down here. Cruising alongside the beach isnt such a bad trade off though.
