    It is in North Western Italy, head for the city of Bormio and you'll find your way from there.

    When you are there don't miss the Gavia and the Umbrail pass. They are close by less known and even more challenging in particular the Gavia.

    There are a lot of beautiful roads like that in Switserland and northern Italy. I've ride a couple of times there, and I've seen a lot of great cars, like M3, 911 GT3, Ferrari 456, 355 and 308. Sometimes they really drive faaaaaaaaaaast, which is awesome to watch
    I think Koenigsegg is Swedish for: "Oh no, my head's just exploded!"
