Bowler Posted November 16, 2008 Report Posted November 16, 2008 (edited) Howdy - I figured this has to be shared around. Today (escaping my studies for a quiet 3 hour drive), I stumbled across this little gem of a road. It starts off climbing, with a few tight bends, then becomes more flowing with undulations as you climb. The road, full of character then ducks and weaves through trees and open fields, with fantastic views either side, and areas to pull off once in a while. Then, about halfway in, there's this nice little challenging series of corners that goes up, then comes down the side of the mountains. Then the road opens out again, to more undulations and sweeping bends. I was fortunate enough to go the whole distance without encountering a single vehicle to get in my way, but if every anyone has a spare few hours over a weekend, I highly recommend it.

Bowler Posted November 16, 2008 Author Report Posted November 16, 2008 :lolcry: hard studying I see, Bowler? I still can't get into it - i found out today tho, that all i need tomoz is like 37% in the exam to pass the subject - small consolation... Quote
parrot Posted November 17, 2008 Report Posted November 17, 2008 I would highly recommend continuing south to Kongwak, the road just keeps going, but do watch out for cyclists - and me coming home from Sandy Point! Kongwak have a great small Sunday Market where you can get great home cooked Asian dishes for lunch and pickup some groovy retro items. Quote

Maybe on the weekend Flattery will get you everywhere...hehe, I didn't think it was such a great description - English and I never got along, so I did the best I could. But even then, words could never describe the feeling of that road... Quote
