Stretch of nice, winding road needed...

I just did a ton of work to the SRT 10s suspension, and I'm looking for some nice roads to work the bugs out on. I'm drawing a blank, so help me out here....NJ only please, can't go to the Tail of the Dragon. And not talking about speeding/racing here...

There are a few roads heading up into Bridgewater that are kind of fun. Going north west also has some good winding roads.

Gotta watch your speed on Harriman, they love to ticket for anything over 5-10. Its a gorgeous road though regardless. I'm a fan of Sterling Forrest myself, Long Meadow Road is my go to for two wheeled action.

skyline drive, starts in oakland i believe, right off 287. Goes into the NY State border and can just explore from there and get lost.

where are you located? there are some beautiful twisty roads with a nice view in middletown/lincroft/highlands NJ. the ride to stokes state forrest on 15/206 is awesome many good mountain roads, i dont know specifics but any exit off of that road once you get into the foothills... way north west corner of NJ though. not a lot of cops up there and good to cruise around on. if its your ram im assuming you want something fairly wide lol

I haven't had much of a chance to look beyond my area, but there is a traffic circle in my town that I have been using as a skid pad, and I found a bypass of RT 206 in Hillsborough that is pretty good. Hopefully this Sunday I will take a nice putt somewhere new to let her burn some corners.

There's a road, south orange ave, heading towards the Livingston mall. They're called the s turns. Bout a mile or so can't remember exactly, haven't been there in years. Kid I knew rolled his car there and died bout 20 years ago. It's now only one lane on that side but still can be fun. Coming from the mall there's a light right before they start turning.

Yeah, I live and work in Central NJ. Different wheels on it now, The front tires on the R15s are trashed so I went back to the GTA wheels.

I work at that PSEG office, most of the time, just down the road from that intersection

Did you move? Last I heard you were still in Hamilton in SOUTH Jersey. I know where the PSEG place is, as I used to live in Franklin/Somerset. And I'm sure the GTA RIMS look great!
