Favorite roads/favorite drives

If one ever gets to visit Maui, the Hana Highway is a must. 68 miles, over 600 curves on a 1.5 lane road through the rainforest. By far the most intense public road I've ever driven. Driving it in a rented Focus made me carsick. It puts the best stretches of the PCH to shame. And once you get to Hana, continue on the southwest coastal road (Hwy 330 & 31) to make a full circle for an even more intense experience as the tarmac disappears and you wish you were in a full rally car or a Jeep.
That sounds incredible, especially the last line!

Hwy 12 from sauk to middleton downhill at night.

This was the absolute worst road I'd ever driven.

thats really sweet for gran turismo. my favorite roads around here are definitely west of madison, twisty and not much traffic.
most fun road i've driven on was in Colorado. it was a mix of curves with some wide open stretches along the colorado river that you could blast because you could see 1/2 mile ahead there were no cars. at the end it was gravel so you could do some sliding.
i drove the e30 out there so I couldnt have had a better car for it either.

Yup anywhere west/northwest of Madison. Especially taking the back roads out to Spring Green. Can't wait to get back in the car and blast around those hills.
This. There are some truly fantastic roads out there...

I second this, HWY 60 between Sauk City and Spring green is great.
-
Yes, that is a road I would like to go down again.
It's been my plan for the next big Madison meet, maybe this is what we could do in the spring!

Ive always thought a picnic at Devils lake would be awesome but its not worth the park fee just to hang out for an hour or so.
Post up a map/link of the route you are thinking of and see if my favorite bits are included. I would definitely be in on a nice drive out there
-
We should start documenting our favorite routes. I added in the county park as a starting point for a proposed meet. Once in Spring Green one could easily get lost in all the surrounding hills
