    Arrow what humanity will do to ride on his wheels . . .

    I was sent this power point and how things are slow, I thought it would be fun to post.

    I've travelled the Stelvio Pass and the leggendary Turini severall times (mostly on snow) and it 's been exciting every single time. Unfortunately I never did it on a Stratos...that would've been amazing !

    That's very cool pino (slides 14 & 15)

    can you go fast on those? are they well built in terms of pot holes and such?

    Imagine a race in that section of Stelvio Pass? Talk about saving your brakes . .
    Also, I don't see any middle lines, it looks like a one way street.

    Great experience you had for sure.

    I've had the displeasure of having to deal with the I-105, and I-110 interchange in L.A.. I've also been to Monument Valley. On the same trip I took in "Zion National Park", and the "Valley of Fire" NV. If anyone finds themselves in Las Vegas with a little time on their hands I suggest you check out the Valley of Fire it is only about a 45 minute trip from Downtown Las Vegas. Make sure you stop at the visitors center, and grab a brochure that gives you directions to the most awsome trails many of them with petrofied wood, and steep walls covered with Native American Petroglyphs.
    Here are a few pic's













    May the forza be with you

    My ex has been in the New Mexico Valley of the Fire for most of the last two weeks. Only has come out to dump and pick up water at a RV campground. I won't see the pictures until she is back in the spring as I still am on dial up.

    I only did the Stelvio a couple of times on my brother Punto Abarth and yes you can go fast, you just have to watch cars coming in the opposite direction. As for the Turini, I've been there many times mostly due to the famous Rally of Montecarlo and yes it's a great experience both as driver and spectator. Here's one of my fave spot especially on snow

    That's wild pino!
    No wonder some of you guys like rallying so much, specially with those road courses.
    The beauty of shift gears and the proper use of braking and mastery of the steering wheel.
    Very cool.
