Nordgrey Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Anyone have any road trip plans for the summer for those roads you love to drive? We all love taking care of the rides, but gotta get out there and enjoy em! I am planning on hitting the Cabot Trail in Cape Breton Island. The road is an absolute blast and I can't wait to try out the Gen Coupe on it! Some of the "iconic" pictures of the road, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marylander Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 I'm trying to put together a cross-county drive with an extended loop throughout the west... but a few things have to fall into place first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Ya my wife wants to do something this summer... We're remodeling the upstairs of our home so time is slim... I'm trying to line up an Eastern trip with an Adams show like Carlisle or something. See the sites and all that... Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewy Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Once that grandbaby comes, all your wife is going to want to do is babysit! Well it's not our grand baby... It's our BABY... I'm only 36 so no grand kids yet. Heck this is our first born! Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiterp199 Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Come on Rich we are not all old. I am hoping to take a short road trip up to northern Wisconsin or the U.P. of Michigan. Does driving the 800 miles from school to home count? If it does I will be taking two road trips this summer for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris@Adams Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Cabot Trail in Cape Breton Island, looks very cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nordgrey Posted April 22, 2010 Author Share Posted April 22, 2010 Oh yeah, it is a complete blast, but you best make sure your brakes and E brake are working before you go.......LOL There are three or four more sections like the first picture, only steeper and more winding. Add in some of the best camping anywhere and a world class golf course open to the public and you have a vacation paradise. Or for the day trippers, an incredible 3 to 4 hour drive.

Sooners Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 I think we're planning on a road trip to Roswell to meet up with the mothership. We're planning on taking Route 66 as far as possible and see some of the sights along the way like the Route 66 Museum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nordgrey Posted April 22, 2010 Author Share Posted April 22, 2010 Oh man, driving Route 66. Don't get much more classic than that. I need to find an excuse to get to the US Southwest. Only part I have never been to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormChaser Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 A huge group of TBSS's and the Corvettes are taking a drive on the Tail of the Dragon. It's a really cool drive I have wanted to take for a while. Definitely good photo ops for our clean rides! Just in case you guys have never heard of it: Tail of the Dragon - Deals Gap There are different parts of the Dragon...So each one has a different map. Radar Trap Locations 120 Mile Loop This is a very dangerous road so here is a map of Deaths Sorry about all the links, I like to be thorough!

MSUGTO Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 I've been dying to do a road trip up to Deadhorse, AK. Definately will be a hell of a run from south Texas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radar Trap Locations 120 Mile Loop This is a very dangerous road so here is a map of Deaths Sorry about all the links, I like to be thorough! Done it twice! Once on my bike and once in a 335I. The dragon (US129) is OK but the Cherohala Skyway is more scenic and more relaxing. Hooligans run the dragon. A TBSS isn't exactly setup for the dragon IMO.

StormChaser Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Those are some pretty cool pictures. My poor SS has been through the Alcan Highway and various other places....I am looking forward to taking this drive! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obsessed Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Sorry to be bias here, but I'd like to get some Corvette owners together this season from the Northeast or wherever and take a road trip down to the Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, KY.

Make sure you stop at Cadillac Ranch and do some spray painting :banana:We spent a couple hours or it seemed like doing that. Also stop at the Big Texan and see if anyone is trying to chow down the giant steak. Their food was pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might be up for that if the timing works out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
