Post google maps shots or non professional photos of your favorite local roads. I'm getting hyped for snowmelt.

Nothing interesting to see really, generally pretty but quite samey. Hills are very steep and short but google maps doesn't do them justice.
Pic related was a fucking cunt.

there's nothing super scenic on streetview where I live since I bike out of the city and the only hills are little dead end roads they don't bother street-viewing. it's nice getting to ride past Walden Pond somewhat often though, the fall foliage is absolutely based.

My favorite place to ride is anywhere near the beach.
No matter how hot it is, there's always a little bit of a breeze.
Air seems cleaner/crisper and easier to breath.
Mood is much more relaxed.
It all looks like the attached pic.
Palm trees, white sand, small hotels, condos and rental properties.
The roads are kept in pretty good condition. Not many potholes/patches, debris etc.

In a place of quilpué, there are 2 valleys which are separated: marga marga valley and colliguay valley. This is a photo of the route which lets you go from one valley to the other one. not too long (only about 6 km and 800 mts of elevation) but that part of the route is a tough section (almost the toughest) in the middle of a bigger and tougher trip in the most cases.
This is a video of a guy downhilling that shit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDAPGPtoGac
There is not streetview of that place.

Ok, you ask for it. This was from a one week ago ride. This is inside a place called "las palmas", which is inside another place called "quebrada alvarado", which is part of the Olmué city.

so why would you post the sunset then?
I wish I could get up there for a morning ride, but even if I leave my place at dawn its still 2 hours until I would get there and by then all the idiots are out.... still a fun ride and one of my favorites... but up the road to genesse is more fun once the casuals thin out.

This spot is about 15 miles from my house. If there's a commercial with a car driving along a beach, there's a great chance that rock is in it. Tour of California will be going through here this year. Can't wait.
This picture was taken not long after a wildfire, its much greener now.

What a great pic.
This pic is part of a sequence of pics i took on a trip i did about 3 months ago, in a Little vilage called Ramadilla, inside a city called Combarbalá. The trip was made on rented bike.
Of course there are not streetviews of this.

Why the fuck is your saddle so low?

This route is fucking awesome in the summer
Basically you cycle up this long-ass hill that you see before you (there's a very steep section just a few metres up from here, but it doesn't last that long, then it's just a long steady climb up for a couple hundred metres)
Then you get the top and bomb down the other side.
Don't ask my why the power lines seemingly disappear in this photo, I tried adjusting my position and it was the same.

The view in the other direction is pretty nice too actually.
There's a pub in that village (where you see the red roofs are in the middle) where we usually stop before attacking this hill, because it's a good mid-way point for the ride. And at that pub there's a beer garden at the back that looks straight out onto all these rolling hills. It's nice.

Also here's a picture of that pub just because I feel like it. It's a nice place.

The terrain where I live is ever so slightly hilly and dominated by forest. No mountainous scenery to take one's breath away but I love wandering into the nature with a CX. Sun barely sets in the summer so nights are all the more fun as it adds to the feeling of being the last person on earth.
The road in the pic isn't too smooth to travel tho lel

Nova Scotia though, does that mean you live out in the middle of nowhere?
