Every time I think about going on Skyline Drive I always change my mind. Recently I saw an episode of Top Gear where they thought it would be a good idea to drive it with some suped up sports cars. Epic fail! Not only is it super curvy (sounds awesome in a sports car) it has a super low speed limit and tons of traffic. I always stick to either 95 or 81 when heading south. I would say it is all about the scenery but when you are the driver you can't take your attention off of the driving for even a few seconds on that road without risking an accident. Glad you made it through OK. -- Thanks, Ken Wilford John 3:16 www.vanagain.com Phone: 856-327-4936 Fax: 856-327-2242 On 10/10/2011 9:37 AM, george jannini wrote: > Tried Skyline Drive on Saturday.
