I was up in Austin again this weekend. It was too cold on Saturday to drop the top but that didn't keep me, the dog, and my Miata off Lime Creek. Great drive! Only encountered two other cars on the way out and only one other (and it was a Miata, too!) on the way back. While I never made it up on two wheels, I did take a bunch of those "15mph" turns at 40mph...and on one of them I ended up doing about 20 feet of it with my back wheels trying to get ahead of my front wheels. Hey you locals - what's up with the construction pilons? Should we prepare to mourn the loss of another great driving road?
I couldn't help but wonder if a petition would get the whole stretch from where 2222 crosses 360 to where Lime Creek meets 1431 turned into a closed course for a day - say have the outbound run from 10am - 2pm and the inbound run from 3pm - 7pm. That way we would be able to just fly like crazy people! (Not that some of us don't already of course.)
And the al pastor tacos at Texaco were good again this time, too. Extra cilantro, por favor! -Carol
