HWY 20 from Wilitis to Fort Bragg in California. Best 20 minute drive in my life. Look it up on Google: Fort Bragg Ca, then follow HWY 20… you’ll see. speed limit is 55, but all the turns are 25-30mph (some up to 150 degrees). Absolutely amazing. Going up and down a mountain. ---

Yes route 2 is awesome, I had some friends back in college who went to school at MCLA and made the trip out there via Rt 2 regularly. ---

Some roads way up out in Rotterdam heading kind of towards Amsterdam are quite nice, there is one section that feels like a rollercoaster going downhill on the bike for a good mile if you hit it at speed. I can’t remember any road names but you can easily get lost for hours on end out there with amazing roads and no one else around. Maybe Vlad can step in with some road names as we have hit them together multiple times. Edit: After checking google maps one of the main roads in that whole drive is Skyline Dr. but there are so many nice roads out there that you can be lost for hours without an issue. ---

> [@Neo187H](#): > > Some roads way up out in Rotterdam heading kind of towards Amsterdam are quite nice, there is one section that feels like a rollercoaster going downhill on the bike for a good mile if you hit it at speed. That’s the mid section of route 160 before the intersection of Thayer Rd…about 2 minutes from on of my shops. There isn’t a road in the Cobleskill/duanesburg/montgomery county that I haven’t conquered. Every weekend for years I would go out that way and drive. I lived in Duanesburg for 95% of my school life off Youngs rd, Scotch Ridge, in the village itself, etc… S.Keley station road is childsplay compared to roads up north(exit 30+). Even Washout, Gower, Johnson rd, etc all pale in comparison. All too cop localized anyway as the state troopers know shit goes down there constantly. You boys need to take some longer trips up north past Ticonderoga + saranac or get up into vermont :nod Spiresfalls road in HF/Corinth, Mahaffey in Argyle, Rt 40, Rt44, etc…those are some fun “local” roads. ---
