Run thru the mountains!
I had a time slot this am to go for about a 2hr run. Decided to run upstate to Bear Mountain State Park. Many historic buildings, fantastic views from high up in the Hudson Valley, twisty roads, great straights, etc, etc. One famous road is names 7 Lakes road, just for that reason. I posted some pics of the scenery to give a sense of what it was all about. Was a clear 45 degrees and that 3.2 loved every second of it, just as I did! It's what owning great cars like these is all about!

I wish you had posted before hand, I was home for the day and would have loved to join. Be careful up there I got a nasty ticket a few weeks ago right around the entrance to Perkins drive there.

Thanks Guido! I've been to your country and all over Europe. You all have the best highways and also great mountain roads. I also wish that in a few hours I can drive to another country, rather than another state!

(Most of) our Belgian highways are nothing compared with those nice flat highways in Germany or The Netherlands for example. I first have to drive approx. 2 hours to get some nice and twisty roads here in the south of Belgium.
And about 2.5hours to get in Germany, i try to go there couple times a year just to enjoy the roads (in the famous black forest) and occasionally to make a quick lap around the Nurburgring Nordschleife. I highly recommend this if you visit germany, because that track is soo much fun.

I've been to Germany as well and was on the Autobahn, don't discredit the Autostrada in Italia! I'm Italian, so I took a two week vacation w/ the wife and visting family from Milano down to Palermo and yes, I drove the whole way!
In Belguim, I've been to Brussels and Bruge.

Oh thats nice! So you are familiar with EU Yes, Bruge is probably our best looking city. Hope you enjoyed it.
I have been 2 times in Italia, went to Lake Garda last year in september. And yes indeed, the roads and especially the scenery in the mountains were incredible. Also visited the Mille Miglia Rally back in 2010.
Here is a picture of the scenery when me and my wife did a roadtrip: gotta love the twisty turns. Too bad i wasnt there with the Porsche, i would of needed an extra set of rear-tires
