Mercer Island Way, baby.

I checked it out today just on a whim but was unprepared for just how windy and hairpin-y it was.
Absolutely nuts.
As soon as this guy in front of me got out of my way I was probably taking 20 mph turns at 40+ and given the unforgiving nature of the course (trees, cliffs, blind corners), that was nuts.

But obviously I'm here alive, so I managed ok.
God I want to do that again...

before MSF class this mornign, i found a great road in my truck, i mannaged to pull into class with smoke pourign form both front brakes and i have aftermarket brakes! i rode that sucker hard, and i cant wait to do it on 2 wheels!

glad you found something that worked for you.

Negotiating curves like those is matched only by negotiating the curves on a hot chick with your tongue.
Truly fun stuff.

...interesting analogy. I'll agree up til the tongue part.


Anyways you're lucky to have curves in your area. I was looking around for some twisties in my area on Google maps and the closest, good road is about an hour away. Looks like I'll have to take a road trip some day.

The rest of the area is built in straight lines. The cities nearby were all designed to be ports so I'm stuck with straight streets that are easy for cargo to be transported on. Wooh.

Gosh, life in WA is so tough.

*cough*

google Edmonton, then laugh.


I hate you all.

..bastrd.



And it's basically all like that for a couple miles each way on the compass. Except south. Go south and you run into the gulf.

Ok sev I concede. You win.

At least I still got this:



It's not much, and it's 20 minutes away, but it's something...

Where did you find that? There's no frame of reference...

I'm scrolling around like mad right now.

No no no that's near my area.

The best I could find in your area was a little spiraled out area that's most likely a subdivision. It looks like it'd be fun to go around on though.
