    i'm a big fan of the blue ridge parkway.
    also, the run around flathead lake and up to the peak in glazier national park in montana is another favorite of mine. coming off the mountain and hitting the valley, long straight road ahead with mountains on both sides, in a 71' Mach 1 351 C 4-speed,

          I would Love to do the "Dragon" in Jade and considering that I live just a few hours from it, it's definitely a possibility. As for Highway 1 in California, that is on the Bucket List!!!

                    That just means that you have no excuse!

                    When I was working in the US, I seriously considered trying to get a job in Knoxville, TN or Ashville, NC to be closer to Deal's Gap...
