Best roads in Tri-State area??
Hey guys, now that I have a "real" car, I'd like to find some great roads in the area, with lots of turns and curves, or with some nice scenic views. Any ideas?
So far I have received one tip but, please, keep adding your suggestions to a copy of my initial post. This way we will keep it clean and organized. Thanks! NY state: - Route 94 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_State_Route_94) - Route 9W North of West Point: great turns and scenic views, medium - high speeds (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Route_9W_(New_York) - Henry Hudson Parkway to Saw Mill Parkway - mild twisties, moderate speed - Harlem River Drive - ultimate twisties, moderate speed NJ state: - Route 1&9 Express South passing Newark Airport - excellent straightaway, good visibility, high speed CT State: - PA state: - Route 22 West in Easton after toll bridge out of NJ, awesome 1/2 mile of s-turns followed by a straightaway, moderate to high speed

From the GWB to the $2.75 (forget name) bridge and up to Saw Mill is also known as the biggest speed trap in NYC, beware NYPD Highway Patrol running laser at all times of the day especially the morning and afternoon commute, speed limit suddenly drops to 45 from 55 right were the fun starts...becareful!!!

I especially love driving northbound past the tolls though - you can really rip up the M3 here... again, not sure where the cops hide so thanks for the heads up. |
