How are your roads?

[fourLUG_hero]

Roads in NJ are so bad that I get pulled over almost daily because cops think I'm drunk when I swerve around potholes. Coilovers on NJ roads suck.

I LOVE Miami's roads... err, not. I pull the swerving moves and I'm on the stock suspension and rims/tires still. Aside from enormous potholes, visibility around corners and intersections is all too often non existent. The best thing is, after a road has been nicely paved, they'll come and cut it from side to side and patch it; after having steel plates covering the hole for a couple of weeks. Usually, its not only one cut, but several along the span of newly paved roadway, thereby ruining the whole thing. It never fails. Ever.

Was there two weeks ago visiting another NICO member! The roads sucked! Actually they weren't that bad, but they are definitely nicer further northwest from there. Beautiful state though!

Yes, highway 93 has problems in many places, but I wonder if you happened to drive on highway 111 off of it at all! That other one is the road I was referring to as being outstanding (many years ago!).

Yeah, pretty sure I had to take 111. Nice road, but I can give you some much nicer ones. 129 through VT is freaking amazing, and 11 and 113a that go around Lake Soonipi are fantabulous too. Hell, every road in that state is pretty much a race track.

As Josh said, there's not much inbetween in northern ohio...they're either freshly paved and very nice, or absolutely horrible. Mostly horrible lol

I was going to ask you were the hell you were driving to find good roads in VT. The route that the roads take? Yes, very nice. The CONDITION of the roads? Not so nice. I think the roads in the northern part a little better (except route 2). I live int he southern end and the pavement sucks. I have more fun on the dirt ones.

BTW, was that lake SUNAPEE in NH you were trying to sound out? I roflecoptered.

The freeways in the 626 area of socal have got to be some of the worst highways I have ever driven on, They make me feel like Im driving in freakin Tijuana.

yup our roads SUCK

The main roads suck around here too, but there's enough trafficon them to keep things entertaining if you're trying to get from point A to B quickly.

Growing up in northern NJ, I remember a great windy access road to a private boat basin that went down the the front of the Palisades (the cliffs overlooking the Hudson river and NYC just north of the GW bridge.). The entrance was in Englewood Cliffs I think. I don't know if the road is still there or open now, but my father used to take me there all the time when I was a kid in his Ferrari as he flogged the crap outta that car up the hill. The sound of a screaming V12 , the sucking sound of 3 2barrel weber carbs fully opened, combined with tire squeels bouncing off the stone walls as he slid thru the 2 hairpins was like a symphony. There was nothin' better.

right now, TN isn't too bad...a lot of the main interstates and highways are usually kept up well, we haven't had bad winters in a long time...so potholes don't turn up that much.
