Fun cruising roads in new york?

[Mattgfx]

post your best cruising roads in new york

[redhott06]

bear mtn..anything up by bedford --> north salem has some nice twisties as well

[Addicted2Bass]

While there are some pretty good roads in NY, I would recommend leaving the state if you want to have fun. CT has some pretty nice roads - the roads around Lime Rock are good. The reason I say this is, is in the case you get pulled over, you would only have to pay a fine, since points do not transfer from out of state. If you get pulled over in NY, you're going to get hit with a fine, points, and the driver assessment fee, which they now charge you every year if you have over a certain amount of points on your license.

Def Harriman State Park- Bear Mnt. Goat Trail from Bear Mountain Bridge to circle. And Taconic State Parkway.

i thought the tri state area was all linked with points and stuff... violation in CT means points in NY too.

in any event, bear mountain ftw.

[bike867]

And Taconic State Parkway.

x2, always a good time

[DTMOOOO]

id like to know if this is true...

[audihtp]

good spot I always enjoy is in New Paltz to mountain and back.

[Goped220]

Gallow Hills Rd in CT is crazy!

[EAGRK]

Route 25 from Orient Point on Long Island through all the small towns past Riverhead.....when there is no traffic of course

[Addicted2Bass]

Bringing this back from the dead....this is true. Check the DMV website. Oddly enough you will get points from Quebec.

[covertS4driver]

TSP all the way.....

Bear mountain... one of the best in the country! IMO... hahahaha

[NvrFllw]

ocean parkway from robert moses beach to jones beach on a nice day ..

[calvin1.8t]

9W, piermont road, well piermont road is technically in NJ but it goes through NY.

[MMAudiA4]

Taconic Parkway is cool when you dont get a speeding ticket for 71 in a 55. Bear mtn was awesome durning COI.

Also if you ever get up to northern NY around exit 8 or so off the Northway, head west to rt 50 north.. Nice roads, next to 0 cops, and fun twisties.

[04A6SLine]

BROOKLYN ; the BQE.. hahaha during 3 a.m

[TverRus69]

bear mnt FTMFW. The meritt and taconic. The FDR at night with the drunks and the BQE are fun as hell. Also love bronx river up north

[joeycuccaro]

Taconic Parkway, Saw Mill Parkway, Palisades Parkway :)

[S4 speeed]

ocean parkway from robert moses beach to jones beach on a nice day ..

agreed...and by going one way matching the speed limit you can easily checkout the rd for cops, then flip a U and rip it with no worries

[NvrFllw]

haha agreed however i usually just floor it..actually i went faster on ocean pkwy in my gmc sierra duramax diesel when i had it then i do with the a4..driving the truck faster was fun cause i use to smoke out the other drivers with the shit coming out of the tailpipe... also another good road is montauk highway all the way to montauk point

[S4 speeed]

...also another good road is montauk highway all the way to montauk point

yea, i'm about to head out that way in a few weeks, and with no summer traffic, it should be a sweet ride

[bob12312357]

BROOKLYN ; the BQE.. hahaha during 3 a.m

Don't laugh. The belt parkway from where it turns into the BQE right b4 the Verrazano to JFK is redonculous. YOu have a 2+ mile straight away with nowhere for cops to hide for the straight line bit and awesome turns at speed. 170+mph twisties and easy to disappear. THe cops alway use he same hide outs 2. There are spots where the road gets nice and tight at high speeds. Southern State is an awesome crack of dawn on a Sunday ride 2, with turns tight enough to drag a knee, or for my boys cage 2 catch and toss him off his bike. Shits official if you get it early enough b4 the Sunday drivers get on the road.

[IwantanA4]

good spot I always enjoy is in New Paltz to mountain and back.

[El_Chapusca]

[NYdriftA4]

you havent lived untill youve been on 218.

[scotty607]

Ocean pkway in LI is one of the best stright aways. You can pin the needle evrytime. It has a gorgeous view and only gets bumpy wayout east towards the end (going east of course) The Taconic is a great high speed hway but there are lots of troopers as someof you know. But I found a part of route 22 near Armonk, off the Taconic that is 2 lanes of great straights and twisties! It goes around a lake for a few miles where I find it best.

[04Ultrasprt]

Route 78 going from Keene to Lake Placid, in the summer when theres no road work you can fly up the mountain. 2 lanes going up for most of it with some nice banked turns

Palisades Parkway, Route 9, and Bear Mtn are always a good time too
