Default top 100 roads in Europe

http://www.motorbikeeurope.com/en/ro...ategory/top100

was looking for inspiration but was a bit bemused as to the ranking of some roads in the UK.

only 1 road in Scotland ranked 72nd makes it onto the list. the route they show is mind numbingly boring.

still.. got a good few ideas from it

I had a quick look in my area. One listed route was Tunbridge Wells to Shaftesbury. Basically M25 and M3. Amazeballs.

I saw that website years ago and laughed at their UK choices...

Dangerousroads.org used to be really good too Lance. Not been on it in a while. It gave me lots of hidden wonders round Europe.

It certainly used to be but they've murdered it with white lines and unnecessary limits over the past ten years. I'll still use it because I like the challenge of dealing with all the traffic with limited opportunity but it's certainly not one of the must ride roads anymore........ in my humble opinion! In fact the best thing about it is that it gets you out of the South East!
