Although the drive around Mercer Island is fun (you know a car guy designed that road and those banks) when you aren't nearly killing pedestrians.

Hey Ron I would love to see your new car and take a run with you. You have some great roads out your way also. Aw yes, the Sammamish Plateau, Beaver lake, Ames Lake Road and north on Paradise Lake Road, very nice. The curves on Mercer Island are good also. I have done them many times in a Porsche and also on my R-1 but the only way to do them justice is on a bicycle. The cops here are nice but not to be gotten to known on a first name basis.

Private Message me and we'll plan to hook up sometime. There's a road near my house and on Cougar Moutain that blows away everything else around here. If you haven't been on them yet, then you are in for a serious thrill!
