You guys are referring to thorton's gap. I've been going up and down that road since '91 on my motorcycle. It has gone down hill the past 4-5 years due to all the accidents and now there's usually a state trooper waiting at the top and addition of rumble strips before the turns.

It's a bit more exciting on a bike. in a car it might be a bit too slow with the tight radius turns. If anyone is willing to venture a bit further into WV, that is we're the real exciting roads
