It is quite boring these couple days at work...very silent market for me

Last night it was a quiet straight stretch after a stop sign...VDC off and left the asphalt a present of rubber.

I'm lucky that my ride to and from work has a few curves. They are low speed but it is nice to feel the way the car takes them.

A smooth and windy one with no other traffic on a sunny day with little wind.

Simple. Easy.

The lowlands in central Minnesota. Very scenic, gently rolling hills, lots of S-curves, light traffic and fun to visit.
I run into Bimmer drivers whom like to take their cars for cruises too.
A bit of a drive from Fargo, but I gotta go every weekend!

I love any road that I don't bottom out on....
But when I go visit my fiance, there is this stretch of road that is wicked:

A Tuesday morning in the summer on US 129 from just east of Maryville, TN to Deals Gap, NC. The Cherohala Skyway, also midweek morning, (mostly) in North Carolina. IN 135 between 46 and 58 is pretty good. The Ohio River Road from I 65 to Cannelton, IN. Buzzard Roost Road in Indiana. Cabot Trail in Nova Scotia. The Lighthouse Trail in Nova Scotia. The middle section of 192 (past Bee Rock) in the Daniel Boone National Forest in Kentucky is good, but the turn with the cutoff to Corbin can be quite dangerous - something slick on the road just after the turnoff, there's this poorly situated tree...

I want to drive: The Beartooth Parkway in Montana/Wyoming. The Chief Joseph in Wyoming. There's also 14(?) over the Bighorn range in Wyoming. In fact most of the really tasty places on a bike are fun in the Z.

Interstate entrance/exit ramps at or about double the posted are also pretty good, though they tend to be short and not nearly as interesting as the ones mentioned above..

Not sure if there are many people behave like me. I love to drive my Z but I don't like to drive just for a cruise (I know there are a lot of nice places to drive around). So I had to continuous make up some destinations so I can drive a bit since I don't drive to work. Haha I'm weird.

A winding road, sunny, about 62 degrees before sundown. No traffic or other like minded souls, who can enjoy the moment as much as I.

These are good times with plenty of smiles.

Hey OP, do a search on fuel starvation before you get too crazy on the on/off ramps. It's never happened to me but its happened to quite a few people on here.

Never happened to me either. Besides I always fill up the tank b4 it even reach half. I don't think people experienced fuel starvation in 12+ Zs (There was a poll couple weeks ago).
