Ultimate Road!





So I had a few hours to play around after work yesterday and I decided
to go for a ride. I found probably the best road Ive ever been on in the
US.  

If anyone is in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area, this road is a MUST. (I had
a rental car, a 99 camry v6 with 2 (TWO!) miles on it, I had to break it
in...right?)

Head out of the city up Rt 88 through Tortilla Flats.  This part of 88
is about 40 miles long, and about 25 of it is dirt! Smooth dirt (for the
most part) and vicously curvy. Some VERY VERY tight corners that will
let you steer lock to lock. Just amazing, and Very scenic. My passenger
was screaming the entire way. 

Then head up 188 and back down via 87 to Bartlet Lake Recreation center.
Beautiful! 

Its about a 4 hour ride to do the whole thing, but even if you just do
the 88 it makes it all worthwhile.

Im doing it again saturday, so if anyone is in the area and wants to
caravan...let me know!

I wish I had my Q  :(
