Just west of Sudbury, Ontario, Canada has its own version of The Tail Of The Dragon. What's great about it, is there is very little traffic. However, there ae bears and moose to watch out for.

Reading the comments in the first article reminded me of a road I found in WVa a few years back. I was a newer rider at the time and had recently learned that there was a significant difference in the seriousness of the recommended speed signs before the curves. Here in VA, I was able to exceed those speeds by a good 15-20 mph without issue. Tried that on a few curves in WVa and found out real quick that their speed signs were not joking around! Anyway, this road had gorgeous scenery and nice curves, but... the road itself had been "repaved". Sounds perfect except they only did half the lane in either direction and there was a noticeable "ledge" between the old and new. So I essentially had a half lane to maneuver in. As a newer rider, it was not fun...
