Hoping to get a group run sometime out to Coronado Trail (Old US 666)!

120 miles long with 1,100+ curves...

count me in

This thread will help me in the future. I def want to plan a Scandinavian and Switzerland tour.

soooo nice places. How's the speed limit over there?

Roads like these are usually 70 or 80kph. Weird part is, we have motorways fit for 120kph that has 80 limit, and we have roads with 80 where you really CAN'T do 80 because of the state of the road, so it's a proper numpty country. The Atlantic Ocean Road is not THAT exciting driving wise, but the scenery is pretty spectacular. There are better driving roads. Pretty much most of our roads except the major thoroughfares are pretty exciting, with some truly awesome bits scattered around.

A bit further from me there's Trollstigen which is pretty awesome if you somehow miss the german RVs...

I'm looking for roads similar to these but in the states. They will be no were nearly as extreme, but ill take what i can get without leaving the country.

So its like over here then. And I'm happy with that, they can slow down the suburban area roads all they want, as long as they leave me the mountain roads. Its a kind of "freedom" to drive them as fast as you like, and still be within legal restricions because you cant drive them faster then the speed limit anyway.

Just checked the maps, its over 1700km one way up to Norway from here... why do you guys have to be so far away from the rest of europe? :-P

Why does the rest of Europe have to be so far away from us?!?

Ughhh, very jealous of the mountain passes in the Alps.

Hwy 1 north of the Golden Gate Bridge is fantastic as a driving road and for scenery, but most of the year it is clogged with RVs and slow tourist traffic.
