    1. Does it even have enough torque?

    2. I'll wager that the axles were not the only thing which got upgraded. (I recall a camper van which had a ford V-6 in the back. It needed that power to move all the weight.)

    3. How do it go?
      .
      Straight. (If at all...)

  3. Number 11 is maybe a dozen miles from here. The water is Loch Kishorn, and the hairpins are the Devil's Elbow, above Tornapress on the Applecross road, the Bealach na Ba. Apparently that means the Pass of the Cattle, because it was a drovers' road. I remember it as the Way of the Cattle, imagining a bovine martial arts movie.

  4. The kayak heading towards the water filled arch is at Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore on Michigan's Upper Penninsula . If you could turn the camera to your right there would be nothing between you and the arctic circle but more Lake Superior and a bunch of mostly empty Canada. The water is so clear they have glass bottom boat tours to see all the well preserved ship wrecks. Beautiful place.

  5. CW, this iss GW. Are you feeling okay? Was #14 purposeful, or did you mess up and put in a SOLC, Son of Land Cruiser? I'm Cheap, I'll take what I can get. Thanks, that's a GREAT Open Road Friday edition. #s 1, 10, & 12 are rare beauties.

  7. We got 1/4" of rain here on Wednesday, so I can finally stop coming over to stare at the rain-on-asphalt gif from last week's Open Road. LOL Thank you for always having something interesting!

  8. Top doggie had too much open road
    Like the rainbows the best but only because the horses are out of focus.

  9. #14: Call me jaded. My patience for fake tilt crops to make a 45° climb look like an 85° climb are long past. The greenery in the left lower corner gives the game away. D-.
    #17: Mad props to the Monster Minnie-bago. Bet cornering sucks. Rear entry, or roof hatch?
    #18: Faith is the evidence of things not seen..."

    Another fine Friday collection, CW, as usual.

  12. As always, excellent. Last on may be mongolian horses. They were and are and still raise their young men to be horseman.
