Here is a nice little loop, if you want some real twisties. Guaranteed to please all.

We could organize a drive out there once the weather breaks.

I think the total mileage was around 250 from Bethesda, The only boring part is the long haul out 66 and back.

Just give me a map and stick me at the back of the group... I'll keep trodding along at whatever pace I can keep, lol. Oh, and if it isn't too much trouble, check to see if I decided to do some offroading in my car every 30 mins or so

it's good, but b/c you have to be aware of traffic around some blind curves, the occasional jogger, police, etc., it takes away from the fun (too much to worry about that you don't ever get to push the car, IMO). if you could close both ends of it and drive it knowing there was no other traffic or cops to worry about, it would be a blast.
