Man, I can't imagine having to wait all winter to enjoy a good drive.

Sorry for gloating again, but here are some of the roads my driving buddies and I will be hauling ass on this weekend...

California may have its downsides, but it really is sports car heaven, year-round.

And pray a car is not coming the other way on some of those blind turns in your pictures (yikes!).

Nice pictures though!

I'm originally from Detroit (so understand what you're dealing with in Chicago), only been in the desert for 2 years.
Don't be jealous though, we should all be jealous of the Cali guys. Beautiful weather, girls, and cars... all they have to deal with is the traffic on the 405

We take it easy on the narrow sections, of course. Except the ones where it's one-way, then we let it rip.

Apexstrafer, those pics make me want to cry. The only "curves" here are 90 degrees when you go from a N-S road to an E-W road.

I have got to get me out to California one of these days. Little bit of driving, little bit of vineyard hopping, more driving, rinse and repeat.

Had to do a visit to Oregon this week and thought I might be able to take a run down 101 before coming home. . . Well the shiny stuff in the picture is armored ice.
Thankfully I left the studded snows on for the trip.

Spring has been hanging out down here in South Texas all winter long. Summer should be kicking him back north any day now.
