We were wandering around playing in test vehicles today and stumbled onto a great little road. State Road 39 between Martinsville and Monrovia (SW of Indy). It branches off of 67 just north of Martinsville and then is a beautiful two lane ride of sweepers and tight turns through the hills.

In the past, after a day of carving State Roads 135/45/446/58 we'd just slab it back to Indy on SR37 - not the most exciting end of the day. Not any more!!!

Check it out!!!

See if you can find more great riding roads on my three favorite sites.

Motorcycle Roads .US (http://www.motorcycleroads.us/index.html)
MotorcycleRoads.com (http://www.motorcycleroads.com/)
SportbikeRoads.com (http://www.sportbikeroads.com/frames3.htm)

And if that road isn't on either site...take the time to add it, if you're so inclined. :)

Nope. They didn't have any good roads on any of those sites!

Just kidding, Joe. Thanks for the links. I forsee much perusing and exploring in the near future!!!

How's the ninja doing? I had a ZX-10 for a couple years but had an issue with the right handgrip rolling way too much, especially in the vicinity of the local constabulary. I still miss it... and so does my insurance company!!

I still miss it... and so does my insurance company!!Doing very good. Somehow it seems I've been able to escape 'the man'...knock on wood. Got a ticket right after getting it, but haven't had one since. I took it down to the 'Tail of the Dragon' last month. BIG FUN!
