Quick video: M26 in Michigan's UP

[AutoEuphoria]

I took this video (along with quite a few others) today while out exploring Michigan's Upper Peninsula. This video is from the stretch of M-26 between Eagle Harbor and Copper Harbor in the Keweenaw Peninsula. This is one of my top 5 favorite driving roads in the state...full of twists, cambered corners, hills, and great scenery. The official posted speed limit is 55mph, too, so you can actually go pretty quick on this road legally. If you want to push it more, there are rarely any cops in the area; you only have to really deal with other drivers (as you can see at the end of the video). Anyway, this is mostly unedited as I'm still on vacation and have limited access to video editing software, music files, time, etc. Hope you enjoy it anyway...if not, give this road a shot if you're in the area because the video really doesn't do it justice.

It's even way more fun in a big dumb mud truck on 44s with full hydro steering at 60mph. US41 near Copper Harbor/by the golf course is fun also.

Damn, that's so far away. I wish we had ONE decent road in southeast Michigan. Only real choices we have are to drive way the hell up to the middle of nowhere moose country or way down to the SE Ohio/W.VA area.
