Here's some GoPro video of me driving Stewarts Point-Skaggs Springs Road, a popular road around here among motorcycles and sports cars. Unfortunately the angle I had the camera mounted caused the rear view mirror to block the most important part of the view, next time I will mount it lower.
The road is around 39 miles (61km) in length and took about an hour. I was pacing myself as it was slightly wet out at the beginning of the drive. Here is an article about the road from a motorcycle forum:
From Highway 1, “it starts with several miles of typical CA paved goat trail followed by at least 25 miles of the finest on-camber, intersection-free, high-speed sweepers. There are two ‘slow’ turns marked with 20 mph advisories, but you can get though them about 60 mph if you don’t mind dragging you peg feelers a little. One is the only seriously decreasing radius turn on the whole road. Take care–you will be totally zoned when you get to it. This is the closest thing to track riding on the road, I have ever experienced. The road surface quality is awesome, some of the corners even have ‘run off,’ (although some have guardrails and cliffs). Best to go on the weekdays and usually there will be no cars or cops there. It has become popular with sport bikers in recent years, so there has been some police presence on the weekends. Best to take a slow run through your first time and check for cops. You will never see them in the goat trail section. Overall it is a great ride. â€
