Your favorite corner?

That is not a corner, that's a cornercopia. DISQUALIFIED!

Sherborne to Bishops Caundle, pretty much all of it.

On the A30 to Shafestbury, after the Blackmore Vale filling station, a series of left and rights all taken at speed, class.

Zig Zag hill, Voted britains twistest road.

I also really like the Sliproad to get back on the M27 at Cosham, by the Big Tescos, Junction 12 it is I think...

Nice

Totally agree with the above. All the roads around this area are good. As fizzwheel says the shaftesbury to salisbury road is a cracker as is the lower blandford road off the royal chase roundabout. Zig Zag hill is the nuts.

On my way to work in the mornings, the time of day I get there it's pretty quiet (6.40am).

The first corner, I'm not a big fan of - because of my confidence in cornering, but when I improve I *know* it'll be sweet, the second corner, on a good day, in third...dreaming of the time I can put my knee down!

Just Look lean and roll my friend. Look, lean and roll.

Aye it is

I havent ridden the Dukes pass, sounds like one to add to the list of roads I want to ride.

Another one like that is Porlock Hill in North Devon, its ace

These 4 on the A4061 are a challenge but to give it a bit of spice there's the added mutton on the hoof.

The A339 is awesome. Love the slip road that joins M25 to the M40 Northbound, 80mph, kneedown, awesome. Although if you make a mishap it could be nasty (just ask BigApe).

Another good set or bends are what we call the 'kneedown training course'. It's a bend that goes towards the Southern Industrial Estate in Bracknell. Blinding and you can lose half your slider in a couple of passes! See my avatar for a good example

Looks great.
Try getting your knee down on our country roads in somerset. Its possible but the odd patch of cow **** makes it rather interseting

interesting
