Korea's best roads

I'm guilty of reposting, I know, but this deserves another mention:
7 Hairpins in quick succession~ why doesn't NZ build 'em like this?

This road can be found in a place called Ji An Jae in Gwangju province, South Korea.

I may have to make a pilgrimage that way in future~!

Thanks for that mate. Not only is the weather crap, but now you have to show us primo roads. Nice road though. Almost as good as the foxton straits.

Oh by the way how does one get a job in Korea? Without joining a foreign intelligence agency that is.

We do have the best town planners though

Phwoar, look at that beautiful road surface and camber! Decent water runoff! No traffic to speak of! Not fair

Hate you Chop.

Geez it would be tempting to have a few "timed runs" up there huh?

**Trudes** · 20th July 2007, 10:02

Ahh, now that is pretty poetry!

I love photo number three of the second lot. That would make a great poster for the back of the loo door . . .

I knew some people who were in South Korea for several years as ESL teachers. They really liked it there.

Now there must have been a motorcyclist on the design board for that section! Took one look at the site and thought "I can make a road for bikers that bikers want to ride"

Just goes to show what a little imagination and attention to detail can generate! Must add that to my growing list of places I need to ride around the world!

Heh, heh...
I'm already planning on making an excuse to get out and ride that naughty section of road under the guise of visiting the Korean side of the family.

A mate is getting married in October, so if I make it for the ceremony I'll nick off with his GSXR750. He won't be needing it.

Need a cultural ambassador? I'll bring a fresh new approach, and keep you company on the ride too!

They already have drunken debauchery over there, sorry.
Still, you can introduce them to homosexuality - apparently they don't have that. I'm told "It's a foreigner disease".
Now that's fresh!
