I live on the Welsh border so many epic hooning roads are right on my doorstep, crossing from Wales back into Herefordshire there is a visible line in the tarmac where the perfect tarmac ends and goes back into potholes.
One particularly good road is right in the top of North Wales at great orme. It was one of the stages of rally gb last weekend, a road that doesn't go anywhere, just around the edge of the coast it steep cliffs on the one side and the Irish Sea on the other, really winding twisty road but good tarmac.
Another Welsh favourite is the road from brecon to Aberystwyth, fairly quiet but need to look out for sheep on the road, also lots of blind crests and corners, not many passing spaces if someone comes the other way
Epynt is another belter, it's a large Hill owned by the mod, all private land but open to the public when the army arnt training up there, all perfect roads built by military to simulate driving abroad, there's loads of down hill s bends, long straights and water splashes.
Another reason that makes Epynt good is the army have built fake German towns and villages up there for training exercises, really surreal hooning through a ghost town with empty bullet cases littering the floor.
Wales is to blame for my high headgasket consumption :-P
