Lookout for reeeeally slow student drivers around Crown Point as well. Ruined my Friday afternoon cruise being stuck behind a car going 10 mph around the twisties.

Yeah, that would be a buzzkill.

BTW, you've prolly run them, but there are some sensational drives around the Larch Mtn./Bull Run/(former) Roslyn Lake area that are usually empty except for the occasional Ducati. I have a 90 minute loop from the front door that makes life in the fast lane worthwhile. Best navigated on weekdays to avoid weekend road cyclists and lost sightseers. Local knowledge pays off here.

Let's go to hagg. We can hog the road with a couple times around the lake.

He's building a display stand for it at his Yoshida Group corporate HQ soon, the same building housing Toyota/Scion regional HQ at PDX.

Since LFA's appreciated in value so much and his special friend and frequent guest Yoshimi Inaba diverted the car from Phil Knight to him, he's turning it into a museum piece.
