Unbelievable Car, Spectacular Roads (many pics!)

zamboni · 05-19-2018, 10:56 AM

Got this bike last year and it was fun to ride.

JG_Coupe88 · 05-19-2018, 01:43 PM

Simply spectacular, what an entertaining post...now feel like hitting my mountain drives by San Diego! Manual M2 is my next car for sure (M240i as a nice back up plan).

In this case, it was a Canon 5D Mark IV, with 24-70 f/2.8 IS II, or 16-35 f/2.8.

bwhip,

Very nice post & one of the nicest I've seen in a while/ Excellent photos & getting a glimpse of an M owner actually getting their car off the driveway & back on some enjoyable back roads is pure bliss in many regards. These pictures make me want to purchase an M even more now...

Great post, OP. The region of eastern WA, OR, and western MT, ID is incredibly gorgeous both on the road and off. I spent 15 days going through the region a couple of years ago and absolutely loved it.

The 99 mile downhill drive from Missoula, MT to Riggins, ID on HWY 12 through Nez-Pierce Clearwater is simply magical.

samuraisaiyo · 05-20-2018, 11:14 PM

Wow!! very nice road and photo.

caustics · 05-21-2018, 07:44 AM

Amazing tour! Thanks for sharing!

termigni · 05-21-2018, 07:49 AM

wow the pics look amazing and I can't believe I have the same car.

raysspl · 05-21-2018, 11:40 AM

Epic travels. What camera were you using for this? Iphone or some DSLR?

Incredible!

BALL3N · 05-24-2018, 07:12 AM

TRULY EPIC! Thanks for sharing the great pics. I've done 500-ish mile drives with a similar number of twisties here on the east coast, but the exposure of the roads you took pictures of is something else.

eau_rouge · 05-24-2018, 08:36 AM

Very nice pictures, thanks for sharing. Car looks even better around these surroundings. My favorite part were the bears btw!

snowbimmer · 05-28-2021, 04:57 AM

Great thread. Great photos. Great inspiration.

Just got back from a 2000 mile trip circumnavigating the Wallowas and managed to drive many of the roads in this thread and a couple other threads of yours. I posted on the F90 forum. Grangeville to Elk City did not disappoint. Wow.

And, thanks for posting maps......that really helped.

Gotta get me a drone.

For people looking for cool roads to drive, Porsche has an app called Roads you can check out. You don’t need to own a Porsche as far as I can tell. I discovered a few treks others have posted, it’s kind of interesting.
