    Saw this on a different site:
    Transfagarasan Road in Romania.

    This is a REAL road, not a track!

    In the OP, is that by any chance Roseboro Rd.? Also, for one of the most ass puckering experiences in WNC, Hwy 194 from Banner Elk to Valle Crucis will really test your ability to ride. It has some insane turns and what I can only describe as less than ideal road conditions. I've yet to do it on a Sumo, but it's a wild ride on an R6.

    Nice shots, cosmo. I've always wanted to get pics in AZ that show the difference in colors the eyes can see. I'm not a good color photog, though.

    My pics are a bit different, but you get the idea...

    The first three are from the 2007 Motocross des Nations at Budds Creek.

    The last photos are from the 2003 MXdN @ Zolder, Belgium.

    notice the suspicious lack of impressing highscool girls...

    I mean isnt that the reason anyone starts riding a motorcycle?

    Some decent roads here....just gotta be careful, the margin for error in most places is pretty slim.
