Default I speed thingz up and slow them down

I'm guessing I'm not alone in my love of an on ramp/off ramp sequence. The on ramp consists of a long loop, about 210 degrees from entrance to merge onto the highway. It isn't a steady arc, so I have to accelerate, downshift, accelerate, downshift, and then GO! I merge onto the highway on a grade of about 20%. I love pushing the Z from about 25 MPH to the speed limit.

Less than 2 miles ahead is my exit. I have to toe-heel from 6th down to 2nd to take the curve of the exit ramp, which is over 90 degrees from the start of the ramp to to the stop sign at the end.

This whole trip takes less than 2 minutes. No speed limits are broken, but my heart rate is pounding like I just took a Zumba class behind Kim Kardashian.

I take this trip daily in Dickson City, PA.

Where are your favorites?
