This is a very bizarre statement. What proof do you have of this?

That's what I thought

The top definition of "twisties" from Urban Dictionary is:

"The beautiful winding curves certain country roads hold, that provide an unparalleled thrill to all true motorcyclists through a godlike combination of road, momentum, man, and steel."

I generally hear people say they are going to the track when they go to these places, not that they are going to drive the "twisties."

I dont but when you try to find gas right before a hurricane or a very confused hurricane and there isnt anywhere for 93 to be found except 1 gas station in town where theres a 30 minute line of cars that need 93, its a bit sus.
No hard evidence just susp.

The twisties im talking about are the orchard grove roads and the back roads that most locals know as old lake wales/ bartow that extend all the way to green swamp towards lakeland. Theres also scenic 17. They may not be the twisty canyons of cali or mountain roads of the rockies or tn but its what we have. I found them via motorcycle enthusiat friends that like to go fast without worrying too much about traffic and police.
