My favorite backroad...
 
When it comes to me and the ladies, I'm admittedly not the suavest -- here's yet another example of that:

Palo Alto Rendezvous (in a Porsche) - YouTube

In any case, this is one of my favorite backroads -- I know every bump & turn and it feels like you're going really fast even below the posted speed limit (55 mph) and hence quite safe, (although on this particular day we were going to the fatal crash site of my moto race-instructor, Gary Jaehne, to pay respect).

I see why it is your favorite. Very nice. It looks like almost every road within 50 miles of my home in north carolina and I love every one of them. Thanks for the video

Awesome road, btw. Wish we had more like that around here.

Great road! I wish we had something like that close by here! I sure hope she is long gone!

Why did you take the girl along? She didn't seem to be enjoying it much...

Mark_T 02-05-2013 09:09 AM

Yeah, why take the girl? You just pissed her off which I have to believe killed any possible roll in the hay after the ride. And who wants the constant whine while driving such a great road.

I've taken my mother out in the RUF resulting into similar reactions, the funniest thing she said quote on quote '' Oh son, this isn't so bad now is it! This thing is.. ( I proceed to down shift and punch it) F***ING SON OF A B**TC.''

Weird so see my mother who was always so calm get so damn excited haha!

RoadsideStig 02-05-2013 11:45 AM

LOL! Chloroform would have done the trick as well!

Hard to really go faster due to blind corners. Reminds me of a New Zealand rally stage we did in '08. The only difference is it was gravel.

Your mother called herself a B**TC ?

awkward silence...

Peer - I'm sure I'll get slammed for this but I would be careful posting videos like this. She clearly was scared (I don't know why) and asked you to stop, I'm not a lawyer but I would think she could use this against you.

Ok everyone pounce on me now :cheers:

Skrapmot 02-05-2013 07:38 PM

Is that 84?

RoadsideStig 02-06-2013 08:41 AM

Lol if you analyze it like that i'd guess so, she was caught off guard, forgot to subscribe to the thread, sorry for the late reply!
