Top Driving Road in the World

Fantastic driving in a hot Summer day! This road hugs the river Douro in the Port wine region. Stunning scenery along the river, lined on both sides with hills covered in grapevines and olive trees.
This road has a ratio of 11.3 seconds of straight line driving for every second driving around bends (nearly the perfect 10!)

Unfortunately the Opel Corsa was not the most pleasurable car to drive around here, but still it was a great drive!
