BEST ROAD in Massachusetts! Mount Greylock Park!!!
« on: July 20, 2009, 08:11:48 AM »
 Brand-spanking-new pavement winding around and around a mountain for about 20 miles, going to the summit park, definately not-to-be-missed if you're in Western Massachusetts. And the roads nearby real nice, as well.

The more routes we can plan ahead of time, the better off we'll be this fall.
