    Default Something to get you through the winter

    This is an onboard movie taken at Deal's Gap, running from Tennessee into North Carolina. This strip of road is possibly one of the twistiest in North America.

    I'll just add that that road, from the overlook to the crossroads, is about 9 miles. Covered in roughly 13 minutes, that gives the guy an average speed of 41 mph.

    65 km/h. I'll let that sink in.

    Anyway, this is like the Holy Land, or Mecca, or something like. If you ride, you should plan on making a pilgrimage there at one point.
