“The road surfaces were inevitably impeccable, a sign of a large road building budget in a country with a ‘frost heave potential’ climate. I think however, it was the setting and locations of the roads, and specifically the rapidly snaking curved sections, that made the big difference.

Their location is totally dictated by the geology, the engineers had no route decisions to make. The result is tarmac, that for me, fulfilled the last , often missing factor, in my search for the perfect road.” . . . full story by Ron Grant
