Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Suggestions for cross-country trip

[Misc (misc]

Hi Dennis,
Sounds like a great trip, we have friends currently doing the same thing
from Orlando to Oregon.  Some day I will get a life and get my fanny into
road trip gear again......

I don't know much about the midwest since we usually drive it at night to
avoid the boring scenery.....

Cool Roads
COLORADO        - Poudre Canyon(Hwy14 from Ft. Collins to Steamboat) beautiful
curves up the river, followed by great straights across North Park, then up
Rabbit Ears Pass into Steamboat. bonus - Ft. Collins is home to New Belgium
Brewing CO(Fat Tire Ale), and 3 other excellent micro-brews.
                - Black Bear Road out of Telluride over the mountains to 
Silverton(not
sure if it is Ferrari friendly....)
CALIFORNIA - Carmel Valley Road from Carmel to Hwy 101
OREGON - the road from Crater Lake west to Hwy 1, recently resurfaced and
awesome curves following the river

Subject: [Ferrari] Suggestions for cross-country trip


Howdy, all.  Will be making a cross-country drive in early August from
Boston to Manhattan then out to Monterey, CA.  Should take 5-6 days.
Looking for suggestions/advice on good routes to take.  Will be four of us
in a convoy, driving some very cool machinery (details to be announced
later, he said with a grin).  Possible stops include Las Vegas, Moab,
Denver, Grand Canyon, Chicago, St Louis, and more.

Basically, want to get as West as fast as possible, as our thinking is that
the more enjoyable parts of the trip would be further west, but open to
ideas.  Could take the more northerly route through Chicago and then Denver,
but a more southerly route is also a possibility.

Places to stop/stay, cool car-gatherings, GREAT ROADS, etc., would be
appreciated.  (And, if this works out, we'll probably be a rolling
car-gathering/cool thing too.)  :-)

Thanks,

--Dennis
