its all about east mercer way-->north mercer way-->west mercer way-->south mercer way! 13/14 mile loop around Mercer Island that curves like a race track.

ive never been there but it looks awesome on the map.

Bellevue in general looks like a prime spot to be on the lake looking at the ocean.

it is the best. Driving my dads e46 laguna seca M3 around that on a sunny day is the greatest. Can't wait to finish my e30 s52 turbo project to hit that road sideways.

..... you cant see the ocean while in bellevue and driving around the lake..

My commute to work:

Its got tons of elevation change and tight banking curves on the way out of Salem, as well as looong, empty, straights through bright green rolling hills south of Independance. It's as beautiful as it is fun to drive.

And I get to take it home every day from work <3

This is my drive to school, only a mile but it's super fun to drive. Elevation change every curve, then the last 4 turns are wide. Fun on rainy mornings :-D

This is also the route I take whenever I decide to go to a hot lap or test things out.

No offense dirtyseattle, but why do you have to be a dumbass. Driving through a residential area? C'mon man. Hot lap? What shit is this? be smart

I don't go flying around my neighborhood... I shouldn't of used the term "hot lap." I meant, whenever I'm bored, I just hop in my car and take a lap around my neighborhood. Never going more than 30 mph.

I drove this in a Ford Explorer but in an E30 during an off hour it would be a blast. Nice little hill climb. Saw one E30 headed up as I came back down.

if you go down holgate to like 174th, it starts to go south, toward clackamas. im positive.

Are you talking about Foster? It gets twisty. Holgate pretty much dies at 140th as it runs into Powell Butte.

In which case, Foster kicks ass and is on my weekly quick drive list out to Damascus and beyond.

boo lol sometimes you gotta spice the routine up a bit, a corner you take everyday on your commute is probably better than one you're not as familiar with IMO :pimp:

Deerhorn rd, east of springfield. Runs along the mckenzie river. Good for a quick sprint. Only a few miles long. Nice scenery too.

[Silverdogz]

Ben Howard Rd in Duvall.

...Devil's Gulch, but you'll need one of these:

[eur04lif3]

The Route (203 mi) Going in a clockwise direction. Although next time, I'll just go to Detroit Lake and then double back. The rest of the drive was bleh.:

We need to organize a Saturday drive as soon as we get some nicer weather.
Anybody?
