Ebized Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 OK - we have ZEDs because we love the driving experience. So what public road in the UK would you rate as the best drive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Evo triangle takes some beating. Great road, nice views and the traffic seems pretty light. Apart from everyone else driving the evo trianle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoREoD Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 I think this has been covered before and I have a few favourites but the best has to be......... Nordschleife at the Nurburgring - 13 miles of pure joy! And one way too (so not much traffic coming the other way unless they're in mid spin!!)

So has it moved to the UK now I am sure you have a special road that gives you a buzz this side of the North Sea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malross Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 A686 from Haydon Bridge to Penrith, via Alston. Starts in a great little gorge, then through more generic Pennine roads with the odd hairpin and a couple of villages up to Alston. Road from Alston then heads up onto the moors to the cafe at Hartside Top and down a somewhat thrilling descent towards the M6. Pretty damned good in the other direction too. Oh, and... Scotland. Full-stop. The A82 from Crianlarich to Glen Coe is a wonderful sweeping road, if memory serves. Actually, take a look here too: http://www.stevecarter.com/bestuk1.htm You just can't go wrong with Scotland, though. Mal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Defo agree with the A686, normally not too busy outside the looney season too. And welcome to the forum bud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
