Okay, this thread is for us to post if we have seen something on a drive that we don't know what is or have cruised along a cool road and want to share.

 

A couple roads I keep traveling on that I seem to like are...

The back way past Mt Cootha to the Western Freeway. (Other side of Toowong Cemetery)

And has anyone else noticed at the end of the Western Freeway, where it hits the Ipswich Motorway round'a'bout, there is a bit of a dip as you drive onto the bridge?? I like hitting that as I drive through. Don't get air, but close to it. :hmm:

At Redcliffe we have a nice spot to get air time..... :hmm:

Duffield Rd & Elizabeth Ave.

If you get out this way give it a whirl :lol:

Be careful but, it's only a 60km/h zone :y:

There is a road in hamilton i found by mistake one day that is downhill with hairpin turns, It starts on Eldernel Tce and goes along Prospect Tce and finishes up on Grays Rd.

Oh, I like cruising from Coorpaoo to Carindale through... Cornwall St, Upper Cornwall St, Chatsworth Rd, Samuel St & Winstanley St. We call it rollacoaster road.

Hey, just wondering if anyone else has spotted the drok that rolls around on a Segway around Nundah/Aviation High??

[JiP]

I think of this every morning on the way to work. Which bridge is longer, the Hornibrooke Bridge to Redcliffe or The Riverside Expressway/Capain Cook Bridge??

Houghton Hwy is the longest over Sea bridge in the southern hemisphere. It wins.
