Mt Cootha - Brisbane

So... I'm thinking that Mt Cootha will be a popular test route close to Brisbane...
Where is everyone's favorite road to test the handling (within speed limits of course).
I'm used to riding to Mt Glorious but thought there might be some closer roads.

I nominate Morgan Park and Lakeside as the best places to test this car.

Even Norwell would be okay.
