Great meeting you man...Bear Mountain was phenomenal...minus some traffic of course. It was my first time up there and it was a hell of a drive. It was funny to see people bike riding on the other side of the roads minding their own business, then see black and white M3's flying past. Wow, when can we do that again?

...I do not know for Exit 16 as we took Exit 15 and took Rte 17 for a little before making a right on the 7-Lake Dr., etc...

Yeah Scenic b/c you drive near the lake...you did drive parallel to the lake didn't you? if you didn't then maybe your weren't on 7 Lakes Drive...

the best time to drive up there is early morning before all the minivans & SUV's, hikers, bikers get out there to cause traffic

7 Lakes Drive off of old 17 isn't really that scenic, until after the first circle.

Just a crappy paved bumpy road with trees on either side.



Personally, I think going thru Tuxedo and going into the park from the Warwick side entrace is the best part. Its currently closed 4 miles in to fix the bridge (been going on for over a year ). but its an awesome "closed course". 4 miles of turn's in...u-turn....4 miles of turns out. And if you're like me you'll u-turn again (and again )
