Good places to drive around in SEATTLE area.
My wife and I we love taking our G out on the weekends and just go for a drive.
My favorite spot is "SE Green Valley Rd"-it's Auburn Black Diamond Rd exit off of hwy 18, and the road is right there. Very beautiful surroundings, lots of turns and no cops. So you can either punch it and get the kick out of the turns, or just relax and cruse around and enjoy the view.
There are a few other roads that are pretty fun too in Auburn/Black Diamond area
So any of you local guys know of any roads that are fun to cruse?

High bridge can be found by taking HWY 522 towards Monroe, exit NE Woodinville/Duvall road (before woodinville Costco, after Ride Motosports) take out to w.snoqualmie valley road and turn left at light, this becomes High Bridge. If you follow the roads as they twist and turn you can end up on top of Lowell Larimer between to the Everett mall shopping area and downtown Everett financial district. Stop at Alligator Soul for some culture and a great dinner. (by the Everett Events Center)
Another fun little offshoot is 204th street off of NE Woodinville Duvall Road. this dumps you out further along 522. (see map link provided above)
Go out past Monroe on Woods Creek Road, and that will take you on several road that curve twist, dip and peak... some of my favorites. Get yourself an updated Thomas Guide if you don't have Nav, and pack a picnic and get lost up in the lakes around upper Monroe/Lower Snohomish.
