I'm curious; are there some good twisty roads that you can get to from there or is it all traffic, traffic, and more traffic?
!!!
Thanks man, good to see you too! Busy is good, stress part is bad though. Got all Sundays off so we're cool I think

No twisties anywhere in or around Shanghai, traffic jams after f n traffic jams. Or if no traffic then you are presented with 65,433 CCTV cameras every mile with big brother looking up for your so called 'safety' (and wallet). Tight speed limits in-city feels more or less like driving in a school zone back in the states or Canada. Other than that we need to drive a good 1.5hr out of town to hit some half-decent and fun twisty roads, some really good places (no cams). The outta town express ways are killer around here though... some of them with as much 6 lanes wide and paved with some magical re-enforced concrete... smooth as silk and goes on forever (read supercar paradise).
