Funny you should mention this... just did this Friday while out in the OBX. Took a cruise to see some wild horses in Carova in a Humvee...

Skyline BL goes past this place it's actually world renown for motorcyclist
but unfortunately lot of people died on that road and roads that lead to it.
On a good clear day you can see the pacific ocean with awesome views.
A photographers paradise.

My gf and I did the drive down hwy1 from SF to Santa Barbara last weekend. We had lunch at this outdoor restaurant in Big Sur thats on the cliff facing the ocean. It's one of the best views I've seen at a restaurant.

Hearst Castle is definitely a stop you have to make if you're driving down hwy 1.

I live in Virginia, love photography and it's a downright shame I've never taken this drive. I'll remedy that shortly by grabbing the Wifey and my camera and visiting the Blueridge Parkway this fall. Thanks for the inspiration!

This trail is right behind our house in Northern Greece and our tiny town sits on the edge of a National Forest (Tsoumerka). The Mountain Range is accessible by 4x4`s and has an abundance of trails.

The trail below is a two minute drive from my house and called Parasa.

My cousin and his Discovery and little niece. The drop offs before the forest around the bend are gut wrenching. Took a car myself after my cousin drove through us up.

I like the backroads of Mississippi, it's where I've done my fair share of driving...

Lots of wildlife, some, not so wild, but it's nice!!!

There's a series of three or four sweepers I like to play with the SH-AWD on!!!

My phone is full, maybe I can screenshot a map of the road...

Hmm... Sometimes I feel a little body roll in these curves, which is strange for an RDX that drifts!!!
