Try Cherry Run Road, in WVA between Hedgesville west of Martinsburg and
Hancock, near the I-70 & I-68 interchange.  Lovely, twisty, deserted
country road along the Potomac...about 25 miles....drive it as fast as
you dare!! Drove it in my TR6 on the way to TRF summer party in 1998 with
another 6 and a Herald.  Wish we could move it down here to south
Florida...it was a real treat!
