My Favorite Drive... What's Yours?

Hey C5, I just wanted to share a quick video I got on one of my favorite drives. It is a long, winding back road that makes a very nice drive in the spring.
The Video was shot over a 15 minute drive and is sped up 250%.

What are some of your favorite drives/roads? Post pictures or videos if possible!

I've got a 30 minute video from my friend's car of me and the wife driving down Catalina Highway from Mt Lemmon. Too long to post. Always a great drive in the summer. During the winter, Saguaro National Monument West, and Gate's Pass are great twisty drives to get out of the city. Another amazing cruise is Coronado Trail (old Route 666). 400 curves in a 90 mile stretch, 'nough said.

Man that sounds like a great drive with the windows down and music blaring!

Nope, but it is called a beast of a highway.

The little road by my parents' house to the old highway is pretty much 1/4 mile

Yeah it's only busy because of diverted traffic. Once they finish widening the highway, it will go back to nobody on it.

That looks like a pretty sweet route, when it gets nice out with less traffic it would be great to see you post the same drive on here again.
I live out in the sticks and I pretty much have an endless choice of routes I can take and every one of them is nice and twisty/turny, I actually enjoy my drives to work and really look forward to them. One day I may get me one of those Go Pro things and film one like that, other than that I guess I can probably get a mount for my DSLR and do like a time laps or something like that.

Even though i hate the state of California (not the people)

I would love to see a video of someone maintaining 65 mph down the Pacific Coast Highway from Monterey to LA

Haven't done it in my SS but had a blast driving my LT last summer in the Adirondacks (Old Forge to Blue Mountain Lake - about 35 miles of twists, turns, ups and downs). Looking forward to this summer...
