Absolutely, sir! I’m sure a few people on here know it (I think it was part of a past cruise), it’s a pretty short section that’s got back to back 90±degree turns; up- or downhill- either are crazy; a few bumps, but I believe the worst sections were repaved…

And both North _and_ South Shore (there’s a few interesting sections) out by Sacandaga…

My personal favorite.

Or this:

Another favorite.

The second one is MUCH twistier and the road isn’t that wide in some spots, also its very hilly…so be careful. I suggest you take it a few times before you start pushing your car hard. I know every nook and cranny on both of those, and I push my car to the point where my tires are squeeling.

My shitty GPS sent me up this mountain in the work truck. I normally dont give a fawk, and decided to try it. Scared the SHIT out of me. Single lane, tons of twists and turns.

The worst thing? I battle the 2500ft elevation, get to the top and the other side down is closed. So I had to turn around, on a 1 land mountain road in a box van

Edit- it alot of this up to the top

plus one on kelly station, looooove that road been up and down it tonns of times and for some reason the road can seem a bit different each time. fuck google maps cuz that road definitley has some nice turns, but i would most definitley hit it in daylight a few times first…

also, not too far from there u can take pangburn which is a decent highspeed road, across to rte 20 and hit up settles hill…go down the winery side then turn around and go back down the hill on the other side, thats a decent run too, going back down is one hell of a challenge at a good rate of speed.

haha no prob, i hope he isnt riding his bike up and down settles hill at all hours of the night, as im not THAT big of an asshole and would only run that road late at night, because there is a good amount of residential sprawled out thru the area.
