Skyline and BRP were built long before current regs, and the thousand turns are not all equal by any means (many blasted out of rock were decided by the geography). I've led a number of rides thru there with small groups from elsewhere. I tell them to lay off the hwy pegs, sit up and pay attention (curves, elevations, deer, bear, drivers, and spectacular scenery). I don't care how many years you've been riding elsewhere, mountain riding can go from easy to off the road (or across the yellow) in an instant.
When Mike (Hubcap) tells about being passed by an oncoming bike on the inside of
his lane (and bike)..... that's the problem with overconfident riders.
There's also a couple turns on the western PA turnpike (Lincoln Hwy) that are much tighter than allowed by current regs. About the only place I've ever been you can crank an 80mph turn leaned over to the dragging-parts point (somewhat legally). They put signs up, but if traffic is light, I always ignore them.
