Awesome NY Road (Especially for Lotus) - LotusTalk

I've been dying to take the Lotus up here but it's a bit out of the way on the NY/PA border. If you're driving through that area I'd recommend checking it out. Working on posting a video driving down it, I'll update the post when I can get it up. It's along Rt 97 on the way from Port Jervis to Barryville.

What town is that near? How far would you say it is from NYC?

Great spot!

It's Route 97 about 90 miles from NYC. It's a few miles past Port Jervis on Route 97... Stay on 97 and you can't miss it.
