Great Westcountry Roads.

[TIPPER]

As I spend my days driving around Devon and Cornwall I thought I might share with you some of the great driving roads as I uncover them. Given the popularity of Devon as a destination for the BolOCs crowd and of Devon/Cornwall as a holiday destination I hope they'll be of interest.Tell me so stop if not.
I'll start with a stretch of road that I wish I could enjoy more but its a busy route so best for early mornings/nightime. From Liskeard heading west on the A38 the road narrows to single carriageway and then snakes its way through the Glynn Valley to Bodmin. This stretch of road is an absolute joy zig-zagging its way over five miles through beautiful wooded countryside with very limited overtaking opportunities such is the continuous flow of bends and esses.
There's even a half decent pub at the halfway stage (Halfway House!) which does food. At the end of the road carry on into Bodmin and just before the town you'll find Cummings of Bodmin where they usually have an interesting collection of cars for sale (Porsche,Ferrari,Bentley etc.)
If you get the chance...Enjoy

Not much fun now as it has a 50 mph "gateway" speed limit. Before then I have had some great fun on this road in the Elise late in summer evenings when the road was empty.
