    Gotta ride, rt125. It's PA's dragon. Nice hairpin turns

    My dude, the ride starts at Hawk's Nest - you are supposed to keep going past Hawk's Nest towards Long Eddy.

      True, anything north of NYC is considered upstate for locals here 😂

    This isn't upstate NY .... And this isn't 30 minutes from Bear Mountain ..... This area is NY/NJ/PA border, Most Northern part of NJ is on 23 High Point. Was just there today, I go often and it's 45 minutes from me and bear mountain is about an hour give or take from me. If you want to go to two other nice mountain roads, look up 44/55 and 52. Hawk's nest is only part or RT 97 .... 97 goes all the way up to Binghamton and that's not a lake that's the Delaware river

      Next time your in the area there go up RT 23 to High Point it's an awesome twisty road and if you go all the way up to the park you can literally see where the Tri state borders meet. 44/55 is the Mohonk preserve and those mountains and the road are alot of fun. 52 is another nice mountain road that goes from Walker Valley to Ellenville and on nice days you'll see people hang gliding. You go Further North you can go through frost valley up to Hunter Mountain, and if you keep going west on 17 and head towards Delhi there is alot of nice mountain roads too.

      After that, make your way out to Lake Tahoe, and Highway 108 aka Sonora Pass. It's elevation of 9,624 ft, very few guard rails, and twisty turny heaven.

    Cool vid..I was just up there two weeks ago. Rode all the way up from Belmar NJ but came down 97 south from the PA side. There’s a great road across from Barryville called Twin Lakes Drive..8 miles of twisties and such..cool ride. 👍🏻
