Mine was on a winter night. I drived with my best friend. It freezed cold. and we drived down a road with woods on both sides. The road was asphalt. Then it became dirt. Then we drove thru an opening at a fence for a farm, more dirt, and the road curved, we drove past cows., the road ended where you turned left, or right, at a major two lane road. We drove left for some miles, found our way back to my home. The complete trip took three hours. But what a road, what a night.. We looked, throughout the daytime, for this road, found it again five years afterward. That was years ago, and to this day, I can not remember where this road is.

Driving from Baltimore, MD to South Jersey on I 295, we attempted to exit the highway. There was an exit sign showing services available, so we pulled onto the ramp. But we must've exited the ramp too early, like onto someone's private road which really should not connected with a big interstate. quickly this road went from paved to gravel to dirt, then just ended at a farmhouse. We backtracked to the highway and continued on our way.

Since we made this trip usually, we generally tried to find that "exit" again, but we never did. It was just that once. Spooky.

On a road that has been washed out by the sea in Costa Rica. This was the major connector road on the eastern coast between Costa Rica and Panama.

Luckily, I drived a four by four because the sand wanted to bog down the wheels. It was a hot, muggy day and I did not know if I could make.

I survived.. Thanks for helping me remember that day.

Wow that is really neat.

I do not remember the name of the road me and my family drove down but I heard it was one of the most senic roads in America. It was right by Glacier National Park in Montana. Since it was summer, the glaciers melted and there were waterfalls all along the side of the road and we were enclosed by mountains. It was gorgeous.

Durango Mazatlan in the Sierra Madre mountains in Mexico, that trip is great no Guardrails and big drop down into the canyons, and there's no shoulder eighter, its just the two lanes and the drop into the canyon, you can not make a mistake. all you see is the Clouds below you, though you get to see obviously down into the canyons on a clear day, and you see GREEN and cars and semi trucks that have fallen the semis appear like ants and you drive through clouds also, the road is a narrow two laner the whole way down, and it has some spectacular views through el Espinazo Del Diablo devils backbone the curves are tight and there are just one after another, the average time for the trip is about six hours for the 70 miles or so

Herky, you made me nausious. My most intersting road was just outside of Hubbard, Ohio. I can not remember the name of this small town but the road was so inviting. I delivered an rv for a friend of mine from Long Island to Phoenix when the rv started to break down. Some men in Hubbard gave me directions to a semi garage about 15 miles away. I thought I had followed their directions but I had not and I got lost.ended up going down this road that has been lined with beautiful elm and oak trees whose branches stretched out over the road and met in the center. It produced a tunnel influence of kinds. The leaves turned color and falling. The houses were magnificent replicas of what one may have seen in the Victorian age. The lawns were perfectly manicured. And the road itself appeared to be brand new. I never wanted to leave, but I had to.
