Thats where I roll and those roads are epic, smooth as glass, surrounded by amazing landscape, and devoid of troopers too. Must be some of the best kept secret driving roads on the east coast.

Can't believe they parked those cars on a street that was milled for repaving and then drove on them. Very stupid. They usually shut them down to traffic till paved. Could have caused some damage.
