Take the long way home | 356 Speedster, 550 Spyder, Replica, Automotive Community

Kevin - Bay Area Supporting Member

I took the speedster out this evening, and was left with three choices for the way home:

1. The highway, which might have been congested (but still the quicker option),

2. The arterial roads, that would be ladened with traffic light after traffic light, and option number......

3. The rural back roads. The temperatures were in the low 70s, sun was setting and the back roads called my name. They may have added 20 minutes to my trek home, but, to borrow from "CARS", roads are meant for having a good time, not making good time

i included a few few pics of the adventure. I stopped taking photos when I got to the twisties, for obvious reasons

That's how you should be driving home everyday. Might make going to work and coming from work more enjoyable.
