Question Looking for a Nice drive

Can anyone tell me if there are any good roads to drive on near the 757 area?
I've done the Skyline drive and while it's a beautiful drive, it didn't turn out to be as fun as I'd hoped it would be. Although the drive back through the mountains was a blast!

Try to get lost in pungo. You'll find some decent roads out there, but from NN, that's quite a drive.

Take a weekend and head out to US 221 in NC. It's a 5 hour drive to get there from Chesapeake but is defanitely well worth it. Very twisty and loads of fun!

My brother introduced me to that road this past weekend when we took the Cobra out that way. 221 and most of the other roads there were very smooth and debris free with places to stop and take a break. If you can squeeze a couple more days in, head out to the Tail of the Dragon. We didn't go there but have heard that it is a lot of fun as well.

Sorry that I didn't post anything related to the 757 area but after the thrill ride this weekend, all of the roads here are very rough and boring.

Head out to the Suffolk, Windsor, Smithfield, Ivor, Wakefield, Sussex, Surry area. You'll find more roads than you know what to do with and they all interconnect at some point so don't worry about getting lost.

Tail of the Dragon? The name alone kicks a$$! Where is that at?
How're the boys in blue around the Pungo area?

There's a "police station" right next to Creeds Elementary school. Normally have like 2 or 3 cruisers parked there. I wouldn't *worry* too much about them, but I wouldn't haul ass through Pungo either.

Only if you've never been to any of the places I named. Thats fine. You city boys stay out in the city and leave the real country roads to me.

Roads around here blow... Pungo is so so... somme of the scenery is nice, but once you've driven in the mountains or driven the dragon, it stinks.
